I regularly use get_iplayer 2.79 to download various radio content for later listening. I've been doing this without problem for quite a while, using my Windows XP system in a Windows running get_iplayer in a command box.
However, I've recently (since last week) had problems with one specific radio programme - BBC Radio Lancashire's "On The Wire". When I attempt to download this with amode=flashaudio1, the output of get_iplayer shows "Connecting ..." but goes no further and eventually returns a "Failed to record" type of message (sorry, I don't have exact details). If I don't specify an amode setting, it tries flashaudio1, eventually gives up (after several minutes), tries rtspaudio1 and returns "The system cannot find the path specified." It then goes on to try wma1, and proceeds to download about 1/4 of the programme, but then stops, after showing "INFO: Streaming thread has completed for file \downloads\/On_The_Wire_-_16_06_2012_p00t1fj4_default_part01.wma". To get more of an idea what's going on, I've just retried this using --verbose with amode=flashaudio1. Here are the last few lines: =============================== DEBUG: HandleInvoke, received result for method call <createStream> DEBUG: SendPlay, seekTime=0.00, dLength=0, sending play: mp3:public/radiolancash ire/aod/RBN2_on_the_wire_p00t1fjg_2012_06_16_23_40_10?auth=daEaLcKaRbWb_ahcBbiaF bndFcBbOc0cfdY-bp3HVu-bWG-IprDDoEoIBuGuxK&aifp=v001&slist=public/radiolancashire /aod/RBN2_on_the_wire_p00t1fjg_2012_06_16_23_40_10 DEBUG: Invoking play DEBUG: sending ctrl. type: 0x0003 DEBUG: HandlePacket, received: invoke 10275 bytes DEBUG: Property: NULL DEBUG: HandleInvoke, server invoking <_onbwcheck> DEBUG: Invoking _result DEBUG: HandleCtrl, received ctrl. type: 6, len: 6 DEBUG: HandleCtrl, Ping 153015303 DEBUG: sending ctrl. type: 0x0007 =============================== after which nothing further happens for several minutes. Any suggestions please? Thanks. _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
