OK, I will have a look. Nice to see that the code is available. It may be maintained when Google changes things, as they're inclined to.

Wish that was the case .. but I have the same issue every time I try, various times of the day .. and while ripper is doing nothing I can easily get the xml via FF. I've tried every version of ripper .. had limited success with the 1st version .. nada with every one since. Obviously some quirk with my rig &/or ISP that's causing the problem since it's working for others. :(

Is there (or could there be) some way one can load ripper and then load a locally stored copy of the xml file rather than trying to pull one down from the server? Using the xml/browser works for me, but it's hardly elegant. Keyword searches .. fine .. but that only works for stuff you know about .. browsing, looking for new stuff is a real pain and very easy to miss a lot. Pre-march napper worked fine.

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

I highly recommend the free, small utility from ASoft, that allows you to determine what Microsoft .NET versions are installed on your Windows computer.

BNW, check your PMs

http://www.asoft.be/prod_netver.html

'Napper required only the 3.5 Framework. 'Ripper needs the v4.1 Framework, and afaik the latest 'Ripper versions are 64-bit#.

It's easy to download and install the .NET Framework v4.1 or v4.2 (effectively equivalent), and this won't cause any other programs on your Windows computer to misbehave.

#My guess is that a lot of ppl will need a 32-bit version.

Not as far as I know, but this is why I added XML file loading into iViewer.

I have been having problems myself getting a copy of the XML file to download, which means I have had to resort to downloading the xml file via something else, then loading that into iViewer.

I still use napper to d/l .srt subtitles where .xml is the only available with ripper.
napper is still useful to list current iView titles.

The ripper has stopped working select a file but it does not download

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

...Is anyone else having issues with sbsNapper? Early this morning it was working fine, then when I went to use it later selecting any video it would give me the 404/error message you get when you've had sbsnapper open a bit too long and the video in question has expired.

Closed it and opened a new instance, but as soon as it has downloaded the video information I now get the "Invalid URI: The URI is empty" error everytime.

You'll need to post these comments over here: http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum...t=2320227&p=15

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

re SBSRipper - yes, it is broken. See post at Whirlpool.
You should visit http://www.facebook.com/sbsripper for v1.08 (30th June 2015), which fixes the problem.

Was working a couple days ago .. but just tried it and get the same error. SBSNapper did fall over occasionally in the past when there were too many eps .. after a week or two when SBS pruned the ep list, it started working again. Dunno if it's the case this time?
