Re: Glastonbury results
"Wombledumb" also seems to have had an impact yesterday on other programmes going AWOL. I wanted to get the "Why Buildings Collapse" which was listed yesterday on the BBC shedules for after the balls. But too many balls it seems means it didn't get TX'd. Result is that the iPlayer had a page for it saying that it was TXd 28th. But no modes available this morning. PITA.

Namely searching for "glastonbury" as "name" in tv & radio gets 89 hits and that includes some from other years. But https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b007r6vx/glastonbury says 142 Episodes Available and if I do that from get_iplayer manually i.e. get_iplayer --pid b007r6vx --pid-recursive --subtitles --metadata --thumbnail --tv-quality=fhd it returns: INFO: 205 total programmes Why the large difference? The same thing tends to happen with Wimbledon and other large events. I suspect that some of the 'extra' programmes are Red Button, iPlayer only, or otherwise outside the remit or the time frame of the programme searching mechanism. I would suggest using the --pid --pid-recursive method instead. ___ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
Re: Nottingham Open Tennis - What happened to Day 3?

'Never' is in fact correct. I've sometimes had useful feedback or help from the BBC when mentioning this kind of thing to them via the online feedback form stuff, sometimes it's a rights issue but sometimes it's just a correctable slip-up at their end. At least, they might be able to help far better than we: if BBC iPlayer's not showing it, fair chance get-iplayer isn't either! "Hi Mr [snip], Thanks for contacting BBC iPlayer support about Day 3 of the Nottingham tennis. Unfortunately, this cannot be made available on iPlayer due to technical difficulties. We're very sorry for the inconvenience but we have now removed the Coming Soon label from the episode. I wish I had better news for you but thanks for taking the time to let us know. All the best, [snip]" One wonders what the 'technical difficulties' might be, given all the rest of the tournament, presumably created by the same staff using the same equipment, is available. ___ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
