Hi,

I have just tired it and had no problem.

Could it be your ISP specific or traffic management/throttled connection issue?
I am using get_iPlayer on Windows 7 32bit with RTMPDump v2.3

My options file is:
c:\Users\All Users\get_iplayer\options

lame .\lame\x86\lame.exe
mplayer .\mplayer\MPlayer-1.0rc2\mplayer.exe
atomicparsley .\atomicparsley\atomicparsley.exe
output E:\get_iplayer
flvstreamer .\rtmpdump-2.3\rtmpdump.exe
ffmpeg .\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe
vlc .\vlc\vlc.exe
mmsnothread 1
nopurge 1
id3v2 .\id3v2.exe

Likewise here :-((

Radio ok, but tv gives up with similar faults to yours.
I am using Windows XP, and pvr manager.
Downloading TV has been estremely iffy for weeks now.
I have reinctalled umpteen times and am using rtmpdump 2.3.
I despair of ever getting it all working properly again, and I am on the cusp of giving up with iit entirely.

Pls excuse typos, I am nearly blind.

Subject: All TV downloads failing at about 240s


I've been successfully using the latest get_iplayer under Windows for many months. This morning, however, any attempt to download TV gets to about 240s into the programme and then fails with:

ERROR: RTMP_ReadPacket, failed to read RTMP packet body. len: 73508

it will then attempt to resume, get a little way further, and then repeatedly give:

WARNING: Stream does not start with requested frame, ignoring data...

before finally failing.

This is happening with ALL downloads of TV programmes, although radio downloads seem to be working OK. Every download is failing at the same point - around the 240s point - which makes me suspect an issue at the BBC end of things.

I'm using the standard rtmpdump 2.2d which comes with the Windows installation. I've tried replacing it with the later 2.3, but it fails in exactly the same way.

A typical command line I'm using:

get_iplayer --mode=flashhigh --pid=b012t6ly

Is anyone else seeing this problem?

Thanks!

Chris
