Hi Ave
I downloaded your app this morning and it worked fine for me (P4 Win XP
Home 700-odd mb of ram). I tried it on a half hour programme from the
Radio 4 Listen Again and it took about, well, half an hour. lol.
Really really good little app, something that I didnt know you could do
but have been after for a while.
How much work would it be to get the BBC 7 listen again in there as well?
Thanks for a great app
Regards
John

Hi,
Not sure if this is appropriate for the list, but ... I have
developed a tool for accessing the BBC's "Listen Again"
service, so
that I can download programmes and convert them to MP3s. This is a
perl app with a CLI and a perl/Tk GUI, and is available
under GPL at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bbc2mp3/
Mainly, I wanted to get some feedback on what you though
of this, but
also wanted to find out if I could make use of any backstage-type
info about "Listen Again". At the moment I am
"screen-scraping" info
about programmes, so if this were available as a feed that would be
great.
Maybe "Listen Again" links could be incorporated into
listings feeds?
Also, would like to know what the BBC attitiude to this
sort of thing
is. I know that there are limited MP3 download / podcast
trials going
on, but presumably there are reasons (licence issues?) why this is
not done across all the output.
See you in court.
Tom.
Ok. Time to 'fess up.
Tom Loosemore did not send the above message, I did.
I spoofed his email address in the crudest way possible.
Check the headers if you don't believe me.
it was intended as a gag, and one that I fessed up to almost
immediately.
Unfortunately, my earlier confession got eaten by the mailing
list server, because I sent it from my real (stefan at
whitelabel.org) address, not the one with which I'm actually
subscribed to this list, which is '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
Since the majordomo (stupidly, although may not as stupid as
me) swallows messages from non-subscribed addresses, rather
than bouncing them, I didn't notice.
Tom is great. Ave is great. I'm a dumbass.
calm down everybody.
