My FFmpeg based bat file solution for windows Yansky's Port for OSX of said solution * I have nothing to do with this other than providing the bat files upon which it is based any problems with OSX version contact Yansky :D follow the instructions in my post (or Yansky's for OSX) and it will ReMux (ie a 1 to 1 copy of the video and audio streams) from the f4v to a true Mp4 file. |

I found the Zeranoe FFmpeg builds (for Windows, 32-bit and 64-bit) and used FFmpeg with the simplest of batch files, and hope that the iPad gizmo can play the result. |
Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersIs anyone DL Little Dorrit? I would like to get Eps 1 to 3 in particular (1 hour eps). I see that the running order has been confused, not sure if eps 1 and 2 ever appeared.

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersHi all,
FYI, I found today that aunty have switched the RTMP port for Hostworks from the default 1935 to 80, presumably to help firewall traversal issues for the media streams. This breaks the downloaders :( Assuming this is a permanent change, to fix, "-c 80" needs to be added to the rtmpdump command lines in the downloaders to get them working again. I have tested this successfully with the ones I can hack on such as the iViewDownloader and iViewNapperLite. Anyway, thanks to all the authors and contributors for creating and maintaining these cool tools. :cool: Hope this helps! Cheers, sbt. |
Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersiViewnapper 20110616 works fine for me on hostworks.... (downloading as I write :) )
if it is/had broken for you my guess is, bad timing you managed to hit them trying to implement a port 80 access along side the default 1935, or some other server issue, they've had a couple recently... |
Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersQuote:
Hmm, seems to still be only working for port 80 for me (i.e. I've just re-checked that the old port is still broken/blocked and the new one still works). So I don't think it's a timing issue. Maybe a locality issue :confused: I should have said, "*If* you're having this issue, *then* this may fix it..." Anyway, maybe need more data points. I'm in Sydney, with Internode, using hostworks. Is anyone else seeing this? If so, where are you and who is your ISP, if it's OK to ask this? Cheers, sbt. |
Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersQuote:
Incidentally, I have had a few downloads in the past 3 weeks that connected to Akamai instead of Hostworks (my ISP is iiNet, should be free on Hostworks). |
Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersQuote:
By the way, which downloader switches between Akamai and Hostworks? I'd want to be careful not to get too much unmetered :D Cheers, sbt. |
Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersQuote:
Specifying "-c 80" means you are overriding the port that was specified in the RTMP URL to rtmpdump. I don't think any of the D/Ler's actually specify the port number for the reason mentioned in the following paragraph. By default, rtmpdump will use port 1935 because that is the specification. I'm not too sure, but I think rtmpdump will fall back to port 80 or else port 443 if it cannot get access to 1935 (will that's what should happen IIRC). However, I might just ask for confirmation on the RTMPdump mailing list that RTMPdump does actually fall back to other than port 1935 if it's not available. Quote:

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersQuote:
Yep that's one of 3 different server issues I've had the past week or so (I'm with Adam fyi, so also meant to be through hostworks), though my downloads never went through when connecting to akami. 2nd was unable to connect at all via downloader or iview site for a few hours 3rd was a 0kb file (Good Game) that was fixed later. If the past is any thing to go by this suggests either the hostworks server is being over loaded at certain times again, or they are messing with the server again (eg maintenance or optimisation hopefully nothing more).

I guess if that's true, none of the downloaders will fail-over for me, if they all refer only to the directions in the HOST field and don't second guess it. Thanks again for the assist and detailed explanations! |

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersQuote:
I noticed the batch file downloader already tries "different places" if the default doesn't work. Maybe the port 80 approach could be added as another retry option. Or, maybe just make port 80 the default, if it works for Hostworks. Cheers. |
Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersQuote:
We have a winner! Howard Chu, the current author and lead programmer, has added an extra exit-code so that the caller programs can react to a "no-connect" situation. This means that the caller can check for the code (3) and try another port using "-c". So the codes returned by RTMPdump are/will be: 0 = Success 1 = Failed 2 = Incomplete 3 = No Connection I just need to compile the latest revision so that everyone can try it :cool: Many thanks to Howard! |
Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersQuote:
Those extra error codes will be useful (I did ask a naive question on the list 6+ months ago - about getting better error feedback - but was discouraged & gave up). AdamW is making some progress (same list) with some extra features for rtmpdump, so this is positive for the iView/SBS/Plus!7 downloaders. |

By the way, you've all been so helpful, so please let me know if I can assist with testing updates, etc. At least I know how to trigger the port fail! :) Cheers. |

... Not sure if aunty have been watching us here, but it seems the iview client itself has stopped failing over to port 80. Now we're ahead of the curve! :p Cheers. |
Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersYo Gabba Gabba ep5 won't begin download with either iViewNapper or the Batch Downloader - is OK on the iViewer Player website.
Not near any software tools at present, so can't see what's up. There are no errors reported by either - just no D/L Anyone else having the same result? |

These are the things that keep life perplexing. :confused: Actually, it is OK on iView Player right now for me (Tues 7:50pm, Melbourne time) - I skipped through all 23 minutes of it. But it fails on iVN (v20110616). |

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersQuote:
[edit] OK, the reason that the downloaders don't work is probably that the server file (as named in the series ID=2986838 JSON) does not exist - I suspect it is a human mistake, incrementing the wrong end of the episode identification string - ep#4 (OK): kids/yogabba_10_02_04.mp4 ep#5 (NA): kids/yogabba_11_02_04.mp4 When (for #5) kids/yogabba_10_02_05.mp4 is used, it downloads. But why the iView Player works for episode #5 - no idea. |

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloadersHey all,
I was having trouble with Carlos ep2 (got: "RTMPSockBuf_Fill, recv returned -1. GetSockError(): 10060 (Unknown error)"), so on a hunch I added "-b 72000000" to the RTMPdump command line in my favourite downloaders. Don't know exactly why, but it works! Hope that helps. Cheers, sbt. |
