Hi,
With 3.00, programme PID b08nyc9z has no `available' field when I
./get_iplayer --no-purge --future -e 31536000 -i --pid b08nyc9z
Here's some of the interesting fields it does have.

Dear All,
I was successfully using GiP 2.99 on my Windows XP machine but, on the
advice of people here, upgraded to 3.00 because I stopped being able to
download programmes in "hlsstd" mode. Unfortunately, things have gone from
bad to worse as a result of upgrading. Not only is "hlsstd" mode s
Just want to say thank you.
Downloaded the zip arcive, unpacked the script, copied to the right place on
my media server Raspberry Pi and fired off my PVR script. It "just worked"
and collected a couple of programmes. The only fuss was a request to remove
redundant rtmdump references in my opti
Hi Chris
At the moment there are a lot of programmes appearing with missing segments on
hls modes. Which modes it affects is random. At least with Masterchef you found
that it failed right at the beginning on segment 1, but you could easily find
that with some programmes you get half way through
Thanks, tellyadict. "hvfxstd" is slightly smaller than "hlshd" (870MB v.
1GB), but I really wish I could download 340MB versions as I used to do.
Unfortunately the availability of low-res versions of programmes seems to be
getting more and more restricted. I found one mode which gave me a 340MB

I generally just adjust among "good", "better", "best" according to if
things seem too rubbish or big for me, I very rarely have to
That's my fault. I was looking at the mode you had tried for Masterchef rather
than the mode I knew you were after. What you actually want is hvfxhigh which
should be the sort of size and quality you are used to.
The dvf modes download as 2 separate files (audio + video) and then use ffmpeg

Hi
First of all thanks for all the work to get gip working again.
I have suddenly discovered that some of my downloads are happening at
reduced resolution, on looking at the problem I have discovered that
with some programs I am getting a "Segment not available from server"
error, then it is abor
Thank you - "hvfxhigh" is exactly what I was looking for! That's given me a
390MB file for "MasterChef", compared to 810MB for "hvfxsd" and 1GB for
"hlshd". I'll use that as my default mode from now on.
Having read an earlier post, I did actually replace "ffmpeg" with the
version from 2.99 aft
Dave - see my "Can't download with GiP 3.00" thread, which asks essentially
the same question.
Cheers,

Hi
First of all thanks for all the work
I hope that signature is gone. Let me know if not.
Here's an example of not working with pidrecursive in options file and
then working after removal.

Yes it is... Many thanks...(though, TBH, I can't figure out why
you need to share with the rest of the world your postcode

Thanks. That means it's a "feature", I guess. It's not a big deal, I
can always add --pid-recursive if I'm getting a series.
But up through 2.99, having it in my options file was more convenient
than adding it on a case-by-case basis.
And that's not a postcode, it's my callsign. And why not put
I just noticed that if I have --pid-cursive in the command line, gip
will cheerfully pickup a single episode program.
Bug or feature?

(I'm sure you meant "--pid-recursive" rather than "--pid-cursive"...)
Well, just to humour you, I did try:

True, Dr Watson, very true... :-)
However, 2.99 (and earlier) provide access to exact matches

"Segment not found" errors (which is a sad revisit of
