Is Thunderbird for email? I'm on hotmail through Firefox..
Am attaching the main error output as a .txt file, see if it works
better. If not will give Thunderbird a go, cheers for the tip.
First time I've posted here (had to re-post in Plain text as I think my
previous was HTML, and therefore blocked), so just want to say thanks to
all those keeping get_iPlayer working.
Several different errors keep disrupting my downloads, some of which may
be from wireless or internet dropout, and one which definitely seems to
be from rtmpdump. I have searched the forum (which solved earlier issues
with rtmpdump 2.3, swf etc), but haven't found a solution for these.
Setup:
patched get_iPlayer 2.79 (command line, not Web PVR) with rtmpdump 2.4
Windows XP Home 32bit .NET Framework SP3.5
P4 3.2GHz 512MB RAM
Belkin N Wireless USB Adapters F5D8053 : V6000 (latest drivers)
O2 Wireless Broadband (0.5-3.5MBps)
Options:
get_iplayer --prefs-add --thumbnail --subtitles --modes=flashvhigh
--whitespace --fatfilenames --output=C:\Documents_and_Settings
Alternatively I sometimes try --modes=flashvhigh2
Cmd line:
get_iplayer --pid=b0xxxxxx
I assume the first error (see attached, Error 1) is from wireless or internet
dropout, or from
an adaptor problem. Sometimes my wireless adaptor turns itself off when
get_iPlayer is running, but not with other programs like Firefox, Skype
etc.
With rtmpdump 2.4 I can usually restart the download where it crashed,
which never worked with 2.2 or 2.3.
Error 2:
The other error, which has started since I upgraded to rtmpdump 2.4 and
is more disruptive, occurs when rtmpdump seems to 'overload' - according
to TaskManager it starts using 1GB RAM (i.e. more than any other program
running) then crashes, either by me closing it from TaskManager, or by
itself in which case it takes other programs down with it. Since my
laptop only has 512MB RAM, I'm not sure what's happening, but assume it's
an issue with rtmpdump, not get_iPlayer. Also, it happens separately to
parallel downloads i.e. only happens on one while the others still work.
(See attached, Error 2)
Another issue is .mp4 conversion of downloads before they've finished
downloading, or failure part-way through conversion; I haven't got an
error output text for either of these though.
Previously these problems seemed to be worse from 9am til around midnight,
but worked smoother during the night, so I assumed they were all
bandwidth/dropout issues. But over the last week I've only been able to
fully download a couple of the shows I've tried. My internet seems much
slower than usual, which means downloads don't have time to finish before
they crash. I guess the rtmpdump-related error could be a bug in 2.4 as
it's relatively recent.
Cheers for any help!
