As ever, as someone who doesn't use the PVR and doesn't know how easily you can influence the commands it issues, I tried to fetch this using a normal command-line command. My command included the --verbose switch to get more info: INFO: Loaded history for first check. INFO: Loading recordings history INFO: Programme not in history INFO: iPlayer metadata URL = http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/playlist/p02j6j0x INFO: Getting page http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/playlist/p02j6j0x INFO: iPlayer metadata URL (JSON) = http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02j6j0x/playlist.json INFO: Getting page http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02j6j0x/playlist.json INFO: Getting page http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02j6j0x.rdf INFO: Getting page http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/4/mtis/stream/p02j6j0z?cb=57876 INFO: Found mode wma1: (stream-world-audio_streaming_wma_world) mms wma9 48kbps stream (CDN: asx/10) INFO: Getting page http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02j6j0z.rdf INFO: Getting page http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02j6j0x INFO: Programme not in history INFO: Will search for versions: default INFO: Mode list: flashaachigh,flashaacstd,flashaudio,flashaaclow INFO: Checking existence of default version INFO: Version = default INFO: No specified modes (flashaachigh,flashaacstd,flashaudio,flashaaclow) available for this programme with version 'default' (try using --modes=wma) ERROR: Failed to record 'The Drift - 15/02/2015 (p02j6j0x)' That shows that the only place G_iP was able to find a source for this programme is as a WMA stream (wma1), which isn't one of the 'modes' that G_iP was hoping to find (ie: flashaachigh, flashaacstd, flashaudio, flashaaclow). I don't know whether this means the BBC haven't made it available in any of the non-streaming formats, or whether this is an example of playlists etc not being parsed properly. -- Jeremy Nicoll - my opinions are my own. _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
