like to understand why the file for the first episode is so much
smaller. How can I find this out.
Probably because it is the low bitrate version (48Kbps).
Check it out with MediaInfo program.
for future spoken word downloads to
keep file sizes down?
Add "--mode=flashaaclow" to the command .
(Though I've found that low bitrate versions are sometimes not available for
*all* the radio shows)
This is a sample command to try:-
get_iplayer --type=radio --pid=b036jc3t --mode=flashaaclow
Hi,
Thank you. That was it. Not through any action on my part so it must
just have been availability issue. At least I have learnt something!
Thanks for the help with bitrate options. Because I want the higher
quality for music and most downloads are done using pvr as a cron task,
I assume it is possible to include the mode setting in the pvr setting
for the particular series. Will try and sort this out.
Thanks again to both dinkypumpkin and bat guano.
Budgie
