I'm running Linux (Fedora-16/KDE) and have installed get_iplayer.
If I give the command get_iplayer I am given a list of 713 titles,
which I presume are all the programs currently available?
But I have no idea what to do then.
I have found some online accounts of the program,
but nothing with concrete examples of the command(s) to give.
Are there instructions anywhere?
The man page struck me as more or less useless.
Hi,
this is what I use, lets say you want to record
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b019851n/Great_Barrier_Reef_Natures_Miracle/
Sometimes it's good to check what's available:
get_iplayer --info --fields=pid b019851n
from that you see:
modes: default:
flashhd1,flashhd2,flashhigh1,flashhigh2,flashlow1,flashlow2,flashstd1,flashstd2,flashvhigh1,flashvhigh2,n95_wifi1,rtsphd1,rtsphd2,rtsphigh1,rtsphigh2,rtsplow1,rtsplow2,rtspstd1,rtspstd2,rtspvhigh1,rtspvhigh2,subtitles1
modesizes: default:
flashhd1=1406MB,flashhd2=1406MB,flashhigh1=350MB,flashhigh2=350MB,flashlow1=174MB,flashlow2=174MB,flashstd1=211MB,flashstd2=211MB,flashvhigh1=659MB,flashvhigh2=659MB,n95_wifi1=81MB,rtsphd1=1406MB,rtsphd2=1406MB,rtsphigh1=350MB,rtsphigh2=350MB,rtsplow1=174MB,rtsplow2=174MB,rtspstd1=211MB,rtspstd2=211MB,rtspvhigh1=659MB,rtspvhigh2=659MB
and can choose which quality to record:
I record one for HD telly one for PC and for Mobile Phone so I do not
have to demux/transcode
so the command would be:
get_iplayer --pid b019851n --multimode
--modes=flashhigh,flashvhigh,flashhd --force --subtitles --subsraw
--metadata=generic --thumb --info --long --output=a:\htdocs\BBC_iPlayer\
