That's not the problem i'm having. It says swfverification request ignored, and to use swfVfy (which is -W, and i'm already using that), and it interrupts the connection every 60 seconds.

Was working fine previously, so I just wanted an example command line parameter (one that is known to work) so I can test that here.

This is what the batch file version uses. Don't forget to change the authentication token for your session ;)

For "Catalyst Series 11 Episode 31"...

Akamai:
Code:

rtmpdump.exe --resume  -r "rtmp://cp53909.edgefcs.net///flash/playback/_definst_/mp4:catalyst_10_11_31" -a ondemand?auth="1333DC3D4D6F2D00F772" -o "Catalyst Series 11 Episode 31.mp4" -W http://www.abc.net.au/iview/images/iview.jpg
Hostworks:
Code:

rtmpdump.exe --resume  -r rtmp://203.18.195.10/ -a ondemand?auth=1333DC3D4D6F2D00F772 -y mp4:catalyst_10_11_31 -o "Catalyst Series 11 Episode 31.mp4" -W http://www.abc.net.au/iview/images/iview.jpg

Just downloaded the MAC OSX version and it doesnt seem to be working. This is the error I am getting....

Code:

Ok, you will be requesting mp4:stephenfrylive_10_xx_xx
and saving the stream with the filename Stephen Fry.mp4.flv.mp4.flv.mp4.flv.mp4.flv.mp4.flv.mp4.flv.mp4.flv.mp4.flv.mp4.flv.mp4.flv.mp4

Any ideas why?

Exact same line (diff token though), still conks out at 60 seconds here.

WARNING: HandShake: client signature does not match!
and
ERROR: HandleCtrl: Ignoring SWFVerification request, use --swfVfy!

Hmm.

Hmm.

What is the exact command line delivered to rtmpdump as specified by your program? Maybe it is something to do with unrecognised characters making their way into the incantation instead - rather than an actual verification fault.

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders


 
I typed it in manually on the command line. The exact same line you pasted, for Hostworks. but with a different token. It used to work. Next i'm going to try calculating the hash manually again and see what happens.

Edit: I think I know what's happening. I forgot to link it with a library that gives the program unix-path compatibility, so it tries to save ./.swfinfo but can't (./ is not a valid Amiga-style directory path) . .swfinfo I believe is still read, even if it has just downloaded and calculated the hash itself when .swfinfo doesn't exist. I.E It makes .swfinfo, then immediately reads it. .. or so i'm guessing, because i've tried my iView script on OS3 (68k machine) and it works like clockwork. The only difference is the unix style path compatibility layer which i'm guessing is making it work.

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders


 
I have yet another problem - files not found. I just don't understand how I can play them on the ABC iView player, yet (both) iViewNapper and the iView batch downloader can't locate the 2 files.

These ones are for kids - a series called Jinx. Episodes 1-9 are mounted on iView. I can DL 5,6,8 - but not 7 and 9.
But they do play OK at the iView site - all of them.

Apart from getting one or other episode, I want to understand why the downloaders fail.

Examining the download_list.xml file, it shows this:

[Jinx Series 1 Episode 1][kids/jinx_10_01_01.mp4]
[Jinx Series 1 Episode 2][kids/jinx_10_01_02.mp4]
[Jinx Series 1 Episode 3][kids/jinx_10_01_03.mp4]
[Jinx Series 1 Episode 4][kids/jinx_10_01_04.mp4]
[Jinx Series 1 Episode 5][kids/jinx_10_01_05.mp4]
[Jinx Series 1 Episode 6][kids/jinx_10_01_06.mp4]
[Jinx Series 1 Episode 7][kids/jinx_10_01_07.mp4]
[Jinx Series 1 Episode 8][kids/jinx_10_01_08.mp4]
[Jinx Series 1 Episode 9][kids/jinx_10_01_09.mp4]

(opened with TextPad 5, copied and pasted to here).

No odd characters, all lines look the same - but 7 and 9 fail to download.

Both downloaders initially show Connected... in rtmpdump, then 20+ seconds later there's failure.

I'll try again in a few hours or days, but it's understanding that I would appreciate (I don't care much about these episodes, really).

[Edit]
A couple of hours elapsed, and I can download these. Strange...

Yes I had the same issue last night. Said connected, then paused and did nothing. Tried again a few times and it worked. Just figured that ABC were having some minor issues.

Works here (Hostworks):

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://203.18.195.10" -a "ondemand?auth=yourtokenhere" -W http://www.abc.net.au/iview/images/iview.jpg -y "mp4:torchwood_10_02_04" -e -o torchwood_10_02_04.mp4
