hello
I am glad the extraneous updates has been fixed.
I have just noticed an issue with updating to get_iplayer-3.18.
in 2016 I downloaded,
Natural_World_2008-2009_-_9._Bears_on_Top_of_the_World_b00h37zc_original.mp4
given the years that download_history was deleted.
In the past any attempt to download a programme from years ago again
the file would be found
and npt overwritten. This worked fine for me.
Today though this programme is downloading once again with change in
the file name.
Natural_World_2008-2009_-_09._Bears_on_Top_of_the_World_b00h37zc_original.mp4
in get_iplayer-3.18 episode numbers are being padded with leading '0' (zeros).
How do I stop this behavior and go back to the get_iplayer-3.17 behavior?
Yes, I noticed this too, files are re-downloaded due to the change in
filename (though not overwritten) when using a --force. It's a feature
introduced in v3.18 and I really wish it hadn't been done. I guess
there's a subroutine somewhere in the code for padding with leading
zeroes but I haven't the patience to go looking for it.
Vangelis, nice is see you again. I hope and pray your holidays were great.
I second that and hope next year will be better than 2018. This time of
the year, I'm normally in the Philippines with my partner but that's
been knocked on the head as I'm due to undergo surgery for lower bowel
cancer some time in January. I really could use some Filipino blue skies
right now.
