Call the Midwife Chistmas 2019

2019-12-28 Thread artisticforge Niemand
Hello

I am attempting to download m000csm5
and I am having odd results.
Basically, it starts out downloading DASH audio and then
restarts downloading audio+video.
twice it finished downloading and failed in ffmpeg. Unable to convert.

Has anyone successfully  downloaded this program?
What mode did you use?

Re: OT Video Conversion

hello;

the short answer
Linux, dvdbackup, handbrake commandline interface.
I have been doing this for years using those.
Get a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB of RAM  everything you need is
available nearly all open source.
I have nearly all the entire DVD collection ripped to hard drives.
I have numerous shell scripts and perl scripts that make it easy to
rip a DVD to hard drive. E-mail me privately is you want to chat more.

that is a kick in the teeth.

what does that mean for the Sunday morning.

Sunday Service, Sunday Worship, Sunday Programme, Richard Corrie from

Sunday Night

What does this do to all the BBC radio stations on Apple iTunes

pvr searches

2019-08-24 Thread artisticforge Niemand
I have two pvr searches
../.get_iplayer/pvr/proms_in_the_park
type radio
search0 BBC Proms
and
../.get_iplayer/pvr/proms_in_the_park_tv
type tv
search0 BBC Proms
disable 1

I assumed that this would only fetch BBC Proms radio programs
 and not the tv programs. However;
~/get_iplayer-3.18/get_iplayer  --tag-isodate --verbose --mode=best
--type=tv --test --pvr 2>&1 | tee tv-test-24jun2019
List the BBC Proms tv programs for fetching.

My thinking was that it should fetch radio programs and not the tv programs.

Why is the "type' option in the pvr file being ignored by GIP?

The work around would be to disable both pvr files and write a Perl
script to fetch the BBC proms radio programs only.

Red Rock TV programme missing from schedule

2019-07-07 Thread artisticforge Niemand
Hello

I just happened to notice that the TV Program Red Rock
is missing from the schedule.
It is on BBC One on Monday, but it is not present in the gip
schedule.
I do not know if other programs may be missing.
gip stopped downloading at red rock series 3 episode 22.
the current episode is 25.
I refresh the schedules every morning to make sure the
schedules are not out-of-date.
What may cause gip to not download a complete schedule?

the Flaky makes sense. The network has been acting up for the last

I have been trying to fix it but with my restricted mobility I cannot

nor the microwave radio. I need to get my friend to check on it for me.

get_iplayer odd behaviour

2019-06-12 Thread artisticforge Niemand
Hello

get_iplayer-3.18 (yes, i know it is not the latest) aperiodically
while downloading a media file will drop the connection, reconnect and
upon reconnecting starts re downloading from Zero bytes.
it just did it on a file that was 95% complete over 4GB all ready
downloaded upon reconnecting it began downloading all over again from
the beginning.

What causes this to happen?
I am not asking that it be "solved". I would just like to know why it happens.

hello

I hope and pray that all goes well for you in January.

The right leg, which was mangled in the head-on-collision, not my fault,
has been having serious issues this year. i refused to be in the hospital
on my birthday ( 23 Dec ) and Christmas. I am living on serious dosage
of morphine. the one doctor has suggested it would be better to just take
the leg off below the knee and give me a high tech prosthetic. it was pointed
out that there is the issue of the titanium rod down the middle of the tibia
that would have to be removed before they take the lower right shin off.
To take the rod out requires opening up the knee to access the top of the
rod and than use a "dent puller" to pull the rod out. None of this is on my
list of enjoyable things to do.

Re: [Announcement]GiP 3.18 released!

2018-12-29 Thread artisticforge Niemand
hello

I am glad the extraneous  updates has been fixed.
I have just noticed an issue with updating to get_iplayer-3.18.
in 2016 I downloaded,
Natural_World_2008-2009_-_9._Bears_on_Top_of_the_World_b00h37zc_original.mp4
given the years that  download_history was deleted.
In the past any attempt to download a programme from years ago again
the file would be found
and npt overwritten. This worked fine for me.
Today though this programme is downloading once again with change in
the file name.
 Natural_World_2008-2009_-_09._Bears_on_Top_of_the_World_b00h37zc_original.mp4

in get_iplayer-3.18 episode numbers are being padded with leading '0' (zeros).
How do I stop this behavior and go back to the get_iplayer-3.17 behavior?

Vangelis, nice is see you again. I hope and pray your holidays were great.

get_iplayer question

2018-12-01 Thread artisticforge Niemand
Hello

is it possible to have get_iplayer generate a list of the TV programs
that would be downloaded when I issue the usual --pvr command?

i normally use the below commands.
~/get_iplayer-3.17/get_iplayer --tag-isodate --verbose --type=radio
--refresh --nopurge
~/get_iplayer-3.17/get_iplayer --tag-isodate --verbose --type=tv
--refresh --nopurge

~/get_iplayer-3.17/get_iplayer   --log-progress --tag-isodate
--verbose --type=radio --pvr
~/get_iplayer-3.17/get_iplayer   --log-progress --tag-isodate
--verbose --pvr

I do not remember all the TV and Film programs that I have enabled for download.
I would like the ability of either disabling some or running them
separate on a different computer

I know I could write a Perl Script to do this.
It would need to input the ~/.get_iplayer/pvr file which are for TV
then basically "grep" the ~/.get_iplayer/tv.cache for those searches
ajd check the date.
I was thinking that there is an off chance that get_iplayer all ready
allows for this.

Re: Problem with 3.06 PVR

2017-11-07 Thread artisticforge .
hello

you should not have to run get_iplayer any version as 'root'.
you have an installation issue or issues.

i used debian / raspbian on Raspberry Pi.

all get_iplayer versions are installed:

/home//get_iplayer-X.XX

Everything in that directory is owned by that UID.

I have never had to run get_iplayer as root.

Re: ffmpeg conversion

2017-09-03 Thread artisticforge .
hello

if you log the output of get_iplayer you can see the ffmpeg commands
being issued.

under Linux and Mac OSX the below is what i use.

#!/bin/bash

ddate=`date +%F`;
day=`echo ${ddate} | awk -F\- '{ printf( "%2.2d",  $3 ) }'`;
mth=`echo ${ddate} | awk -F\- '{ print $2 }'`;
yrs=`echo ${ddate} | awk -F\- '{ print $1 }'`;

date;
date
 | tee -a
~/get_iplayer-logs/get_iplayer-3.02-pvr-radio-${yrs}${mth}${day}
~/get_iplayer-3.02/get_iplayer --verbose --type=radio --pvr
| tee -a ~/get_iplayer-logs/get_iplayer-3.02-pvr-radio-${yrs}${mth}${day}
date
 | tee -a
~/get_iplayer-logs/get_iplayer-3.02-pvr-radio-${yrs}${mth}${day}
date;


This proves useful when the tagging operation fails under Linux I am
able to rerun the command under MacOSX.

Hello

there is no --fatfilename option in get_iplayer-3.01.
the last get_iplayer version to have it was perhaps get_iplayer-2.96

I do not have get_iplayer-2.97 nor get_iplayer-2.98 installed. so I am
not sure about them.
since get_iplayer-2.99 '--fatfilename' and '--punctuation' are no
longer present.

I am not entirely sure it is a bug, it is more like unexpected behavior.

it is easily remedied manually.

A bug in get_iplayer-3.01?

2017-06-02 Thread artisticforge .
Hello

this is the first time i have seen this happen.
the Program, "Vet 24/7" has a 'forward slash' in the name.
When get_iplayer makes the subdirectory under linux, it
creates Vet_24/7_Series_4
The 'forward slash' is normally the indication of a directory

Vets_24/7_Series_4/

The episodes are in the 7_Series_4 directory.

this is easy to manually remedy.

Not sure what should be the "proper" behavior.

Good place to start is read the get_iplayer wiki on recording quality

https://github.com/get-iplayer/get_iplayer/wiki/modes

If possible, the other option is to add a hard drive. Hard drives are
inexpensive. Nothing like the prices years ago. amazon.co.uk seems
to have the warehouse deals on hard drives.

the 1280x720@25fps modes are not available for some unknown reason.

No CDN have been excluded.
As to why Akamai is not showing in the list I have no idea.

That would imply that 1280x720@25fps is only available from CDN akamai.

hello

i just pulled the info for the pid without any issues.
I did notice that there are no 1280x720@25fps modes.

It appears that 1280x720@25fps are gone.
If I want 1280x720 I have to set --fps50

I have noticed that several shows are no longer available in
1280x720@25fps they are now being downloaded at
960x540@25fps.

the latest episode of Hinterland BBC Four is available in
1280x720@50fps.

any idea as to why the 1280x720@25fps mode is now gone?

what is pre-watershed version

2017-05-24 Thread artisticforge .
hello;

while running --info on a program two versions came up which i had not
seen before, pre-watershed & pre-watershed2.

what are meanings of all the various versions?
signed & audio described are self explanatory
default & original are generic terms

editorial is an odd one.

the program is : http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01jcc8b

Re: pid-recursive in options file, bug or feature?

2017-05-03 Thread artisticforge .
hello

is there a way you can turn off your signature. is really makes your
posts difficult to read.

If you could provide an example or two of pids which fail with
pid-recursive set in the options ; others would be able to verify it.

my brief testing is :
a single episode pid works just fine.
a single episode URL fails.

I tried only one example
The_Titfield_Thunderbolt_-__b03mv97b_original.

Re: hlsstd mode not available for most programmes

2017-05-03 Thread artisticforge .
hello

to determine the smallest file available you may want to use:
get_iplayer-2.99/get_iplayer --info --verbose --type=radio --pid=

you should see output with a modesizes section.

here is an example:
modesizes:  other:
dafhigh1=32MiB,dafhigh2=32MiB,dafhigh3=32MiB,dafhigh4=32MiB,dafstd1=13MiB,
dafstd2=13MiB,dafstd3=13MiB,dafstd4=13MiB,dafmed1=9MiB,dafmed2=9MiB,dafmed3=9MiB,
dafmed4=9MiB,daflow1=5MiB,daflow2=5MiB,daflow3=5MiB,daflow4=5MiB,hafhigh1=36MiB,
hafhigh2=36MiB,hafstd1=15MiB,hafstd2=15MiB,hafmed1=11MiB,hafmed2=11MiB,haflow1=5MiB,
haflow2=5MiB,hlsaacstd1=14MiB,hlsaaclow1=5MiB

perhaps mode == hlsaaclow1 is the mode you seek.

want you posted has no meaning with some context.

how are you fetching the Book at Bedtime episodes?
what is the command that you are using?

I am surprised that get_iplayer-3.00 did not complain about any
episode past 3 being future episodes.

the cache lists them at future dates even though they are available on the web.

instead of "get_iplayer --get 6647 --verbose > "$HOME/log.txt" 2>&1"

try

"get_iplayer --get 6647 --verbose  2>&1 | tee ~/log.txt"

the 'tee' version will allow you to see what is being placed in the

If the output of get_iplayer is directed to a log file there is no

with output of get_iplayer to standard out the progress bar works fine.

Foreign Language programs subtitled in English by default.

Re: No .xml - what is work-around?

2017-04-28 Thread artisticforge .
the simple answer is that something is different this time around.

I am seriously sick and have other issues on my mind. I know that right now
under Jessie Debian get_iplayer-2.99 is completely and utterly broken.
if you say it works great go for it. between lung cancer and testicular cancer
i may very well be dead by the time get_iplayer work around is found.

i have dvds and itunes.

Alternatives for North America

2017-04-28 Thread artisticforge .
Hello

with get_iplayer R.I.P.

the USA does have at least two alternatives to having quality programming
the BBC & ITV created Britbox and it launched earlier this year. it is
Geo-locked to USA only.
the other is MHz networks. strictly foreign programs. do not know if
MHz is Geo-locked.
the one adult child who resides in a USA cesspool of a city, uses them.

They are less than $10.00 USD per month.

what was the command line that you used?
also what OS. Mac OS X, Linux, Windows

that part of the Perl code is attempting to resume a download.
it is attempting to open the data file. it appears to be confused

it was actually reasonable for time. I just finished running my
modified refresh cache shell script.
Granted i excluded regional & local. So it was not a true apple/apple test.

it will limp along until the BBC finally puts it down, so to speak.

Re: get_iplayer-2.99 search is different

2017-02-15 Thread artisticforge .
hello

the problem is the "long" option.

I was read the --dump-option output again.
the --long option has two very different meanings.

under display options
 --long, -l  long
 Show extended programme info

under search options
 --long, -l  long 1
 Additionally search in programme
descriptions and episode names  (same as --fields=name,episode,desc )

i was only thinking of the display option when i added it to the options file.
so removing it from options should resolve the issue.



that is confusing .

get_iplayer-2.99 search is different

2017-02-15 Thread artisticforge .
hello

for several years I have had a PVR for the BBC Radio Wales programme
Celebration
this worked as i expected downloaded Celebration every Sunday morning.
BBC Radio Wales Celebration http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0079fvx

This morning i started get_iplayer-2.99 with
~/get_iplayer-2.99/get_iplayer --verbose --pvr

The result is that any radio programme with 'celebration' in the
radio.cache entry is being
queued to be downloaded.

So basically under Linux if you just did:
grep -i -e 'celebration' ~/.get_iplayer/radio.cache | less -S
will show you all the programmes currently matching.

I have disabled many PVR searches until I am able to determine how to
restore the old behavior.

I assume that the old behavior was just searching for matches on the name field.

I seem to remember that in the PVR file the fields to search could be specified.

current .get_player/pvr/Celebration contains
type radio
search0 Celebration

equally odd, the PVR for the radio programme 'Falco'
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00r35gz.html

returned "10126|radio|5 live NFL - Super Bowl LI|b08dxcd8" because in
the description is
the word "Falcons" .

Was this also covered in release notes that I somehow missed?

Re: 2.99 openSuse ffmpeg

2017-02-14 Thread artisticforge .
hello

what options are current in use?
./get_iplayer --dump-options
or
./get_iplayer --show-options

./get_iplayer --ffmpeg 

I have not used OpenSUSE in years so i do not know where they are putting ffmpeg
the likely places are /usr/bin /usr/local/bin

you could try the commandline
which ffmpeg
to see which ffmpeg it is using

the other commandline
whereis ffmpeg
would return where ffmpeg is found

example
whereis ffmpeg
ffmpeg: /usr/bin/ffmpeg /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg /usr/share/ffmpeg
/usr/share/man/man1/ffmpeg.1.gz /usr/src/ffmpeg-3.1.3/ffmpeg.h
/usr/src/ffmpeg-3.1.3/ffmpeg.c
/usr/src/ffmpeg-3.1.3-64bit-static/ffmpeg

which ffmpeg
/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg

when all else fails try ./get_iplayer --long-help

Re: Why mp4 or mp4.ts from identical installation?

2017-02-10 Thread artisticforge .
hello

the two Linux installed have different Perl modules installed.

You would have to find out the versions of the Perl modules used by get_iplayer.

get_iplayer is fine. the perl installation is the issue.

Re: Why mp4 or mp4.ts from identical installation?

2017-02-09 Thread artisticforge .
hello

Are you installing get_iplayer using the packages for Fedora & CentOS or from
the official github site?

also do not assume that get_iplayer on Fedora & CentOS are the same version.
particularly if installed from their respective repositories.

Also which version of get_iplayer are you using?
rtmpdump has been deprecated for several months.
why are you still downloading flash videos? "*.fvl"

based sole on dump.txt the centos linux install does not have ffmpeg installed.
the fedora install does have ffmpeg installed. fedora install does not
have AtomicParsley installed. I see no attempt to tag the output.

the command that i use is:
~/get_iplayer-2.96/get_iplayer --tag-isodate --verbose --mode=best
--type=tv --pid=  2>&1
~/get_iplayer-log/get_iplayer-2.96--MM-DD

I do not use the web interface so i can not help you there.
i normal use bash shell scripts and some perl scripts to download what i desire.

Re: BBC to reinvent iPlayer

2017-01-11 Thread artisticforge .
hello

having read this news earlier i have been wondering if
this means that the BBC is finally going to go 'global'
and drop the geographical limitations.
Netflix and Amazon Prime are both global.
the offerings may be different depending on where you
are on earth but basically you can watch Netflix or
Amazon Prime Video.

I do realise that some of this is out of the BBC's "hands".
The IP owners have the final say.

The worse scenerio would be for the BBC iPlayer to become
like Apple iTunes. iTunes Users may only purchase media from
the country store that their apple id is registered in. It would be
better than nothing.

i personally have a gut feeling that get_iplayer days are numbered.
There is just too much £ involved. Everybody wants their share of
tea & biscuits.

In the future BBC iPlayer may be the greatest thing, but if it is
still UK only it will not mean all that much.

Re: Issues with Large Files

2017-01-10 Thread artisticforge .
hello

I have noticed this also. iTunes would not import audio & video files
into the iTunes Library.
While researching the cause it became apparent that the files were
thousands of small chunks.
I have found that running them through Handbrake "fixes" them.

i do not see anything that get_iplayer may do to alleviate  the
problem. this is a BBC issue.

Being Human Series 1 Episode 3 is a bit strange file

2017-01-01 Thread artisticforge .
Hello

Being Human Series 1 Episode 3 b00hkc4x is of version
'other'. This 'other' version downloads and tags correctly.
the issue with it is that iTunes will not load it into the iTunes Library.
The Quick Look feature of Mac OSX will not play the episode.
VLC, does play the "other" version.

Using handbrake on Mac OSX;  the 'other' version was "processed"
to a handbrake copy.
This handbrake copy will load into the iTunes Library and the Quick Look
feature does play the episode. The handbrake copy is roughly half the size
in bytes.
The 'other' version is close to the size of the other Being_Human Series 1
episodes.

Being_Human_Series_1_-_3._Episode_3_b00hkc4x_handbrake.m4v
1.12 GB on disk (1,122,219,818 bytes)
Being_Human_Series_1_-_3._Episode_3_b00hkc4x_other.mp4
2.23 GB on disk (2,225,940,368 bytes)

I did check the long info for the pid and the version 'other' is the
only existing version.

So what exactly is meant with a version of 'other'?

yes, i did download the "best" which is the default option I have set.
I had assumed wrongly that Linuxmint 64bit was up to date on apps.
obviously it is not.
I used mp4tags to tag the file without any issues. required some minimal
editing of the AtomicParsley command.

Given the end of year events[1] I found the humour refreshing.

hello

I listen to BBC Radio off the internet.
As to which stations it depends on the day of the week and the time of day.
Sunday is Radio Cumbria, Radio Kent, Radio Lincolnshire, Radio Stoke and
Radio Wales.

Asking for location makes no sense to me. it is all to create the
illusion that the BBC is doing something to get people to purchase TV
Licence.

They would not have an issue if they would just figure out how to
allow non-UK residents pay a subscription fee for the BBC content. I
know friends in the USA
who pay an obscene amount per month for 500 channels of rubbish. They would
pay £50.00 per month for the BBC easily. BBC America is NOT the BBC.
it was sold off a while ago.

iTunes -> Radio -> Alternative Rock -> BBC Radio 6
iTunes -> Radio -> Comedy -> BBC Radio 4
iTunes -> Radio -> Comedy -> BBC Radio 4 extra

iTunes -> Radio -> Adult Contemporary -> BBC Radio 2

The iOS app, BBC iPlayer Radio,

THe requirement of a id & password if just smoke & mirrors.

I ran the 4 ok downloads through many different version of ffmpeg on
the MacOSX & AMD Linux
the resulting output file were all OK
AtomicParsley tagged the output files OK.

The Issue is with Perl Modules under Debian Linux Jessie.
Sometime between Sunday 2016-09-04 & Sunday 2016-09-11 Debian Linux
Jessie Updated which broken get_iplayer under Debian Linux. In all
likelihood the update took place Saturday night.

The AMD Debian Linux box has been my "go to" box for years. it have
used it for get_iplayer for 4 years.
There was never an issue like this at anytime in the past.

The Raspberry Pi were clean installs in the past week.

for now I will use the MacOSX computer until I am able to sort out the
Debian Linux boxes.
My first thought is to downgrade all Perl Modules on the AMD Debian Linux box.
the Intel Box will be kept intact until such time I am able to wipe it
clean and retire it.
For now it will be a comparison box.

Re: Keep download file before conversion?

2016-09-14 Thread artisticforge .
hello

I mis typed my previous reply.

the culprit may be differences in the perl Installations.

using different ffmpeg including the latest from ffmpeg.org
still resulted in truncated audio files.

that would point to that the downloaded file is different in some way.

later today i will download the same offending file with --raw on
linux, MacOSX,
& windows 10. the downloaded file should be the same across all platforms.

Yes, I am fully aware of that. The reason of wanting the "raw" files
was to compare the downloaded files from a Mac, Windows & Linux before
"processed" by ffmpeg.

In theory the 3 downloaded files should be the same.
that would reinforce that ffmpeg is the culprit on Debian Linux Jessie.

it if ffmpeg that is misreading the downloaded file.

Re: Audio encoding changed, truncated audio files

2016-09-12 Thread artisticforge .
hello

Thank you for the debugging research.

In the verbose log, ffmpeg is seeing a Duration of 36:48 at 1598 Kbps
that is nearly 5 times 320 kbps.
5 times 36:48 gives roughly 10800 seconds or 3hours. 3 hours is what
the file should be.

so for some reason under Debian Linux Jessie the downloaded file is
either corrupted or being read incorrectly.

Testing under MacOSX Mountain Lion with ffmpeg 3.1.3 produces the correct file.
ffmpeg version 3.1.3 Copyright (c) 2000-2016 the FFmpeg developers
  built with Apple LLVM version 5.0 (clang-500.2.75) (based on LLVM 3.3svn)

testing under Windows 10 running inside cygwyn  produces the correct file.

those results would point to a difference in the Perl installation on
Debian Linux Jessie.

this is why I asked about keeping the downloaded file.
compare across the three different operating systems.
in theory they should be the same.

Keep download file before conversion?

2016-09-12 Thread artisticforge .
Hello

i have looked at the long help and do not find what I was looking for.
Is there a way to keep the raw downloaded file before conversion?

this would be the *.ts or m4a.m4a file.
