The vmode in the options file confuses get_iplayer, I get Undefined subroutine &Streamer::rtsp::tee called at /usr/local/bin/get_iplayer line 5938 I tried adding p5-IO-Tee from the ports, and still get the issue. I found perl tee v0.13 which then required Probe::Perl, and IPC::Run3 (in the ports). http://search.cpan.org/dist/Tee/ http://search.cpan.org/dist/Probe-Perl/ I can do these as ports. Then see what happens.
I tried BBC Three, BBC Four, these also work fine for live streaming. I have the options setup for vmode to flashhd1,flashvhigh2 in order. I had tried HD already, I end up using the vhigh for most BBC, just not many HD programs. The vhigh is good apart from the very occasional pause on playback. I have some ports which might be of interest multimedia/xmltv plus all the perl ports it requires x11/p5-Tk-TableMatrix, textproc/p5-Lingua-Preferred, textproc/p5-Lingua-EN-Numbers-Ordinate, www/p5-HTTP-Cache-Transparent, converters/p5-Unicode-UTF8simple mutlimedia/maxemumtvguide (KDE) http://mtvg.sourceforge.net/ They all work, just need a little tidy up. I have also had freebrowser (Java) / tvbrowser (Java) work using the prebuilt jar files, these require xmltv to get the TV listings, and work best with java 1.6. Regards Nigel Taylor
