I can help. It's been years since I looked at RTE content as they were all over the place with different technologies. Their Listen Again archive wasn't amenable to processing - each program had a web site which needed screen scraping. Podcasts are emphasised by RTE but often no 3rd party conmtent (e.g. documentaries, news programs etc no music) I doubt if iPlayer is any use since RTE use MP3 streams. I think the best approach may be to look at the "app" and see what formats are being used for data. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112189 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
