How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

 

Anyone able to assist. Iview d/l has worked for 2 months and suddenly getting this.

Which list do you wish to browse:
A. Download new list from iView server

Reading Index...
sort: open failed: /Users/name/Downloads/iView_Downloader_OSX/temp/possibleshows.txt: No such file or directory
Select a number to add a show to download list, 'a' adds all,
0 adds nothing, and 's' allows you to search this list:

have checked path - nothing changed & appears correct
have checked file is read & write

any ideas would be really appreciated.
Thanks:) http://stream-recorder.com/forum/ima...lies/smile.gif

Thank you very much :D

vipher,
Thank you. The script is working ok for me now.

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

 

Yeah, ABC "updated" iView again last week... Most of the downloaders have been updated. See the iView Downloaders Wiki for links. Also, vipher has done an update - check the post here.

My pleasure :D

I must add my appreciation to mce x 2 and to Anywho x 2.

On another matter: the ABC iView Messageboard makes good reading - and a warning (see later).

Occasionally a program is not at all what it seems!

Ashes to Ashes Se 2 Ep 3 is actually Ep 2

La Stupenda is not Joan Sutherland

Gimme Gimme Gimme - Episode 7

Each of these is something different than its episode title (or even the show). I must admit I'm not a great fan of any of these, though.

Also, saw that early October, ABC Evening News was the same day's news, for about 4 days in a row, even though the date changed each day!

This post is not intended as a criticism of iView staff (I've done enough of that, and they get heaps I think judging by the Messageboard), but if people are going to schedule a lot of downloads it's a warning that they may not be what you think!

In the past, I've had technical glitches within an episode (and there are occasional reports on iView Messageboard about bad synch between audio and video - not to mention CC that are very badly out). When these are mentioned on the Messageboard, and the Moderator reads them, then a few days later there may be a fixed version mounted (with an absence for a day or three).

Its working great today :) don't know what happened there but yay its working. I actually think there was nothing wrong and it was the flu I had that confused me, now where's the embarrassed icon :D

Oh yes, found it :o

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

 

Thanks Vipher for the new script!

Unfortunately, on my Mac OSX 10.6.4, when I run the file : runme_first, I get the following messages in terminal:
chmod: rtmpdump_universal: No such file or directory
chmod: flvstreamer_universal: No such file or directory
chmod: ffmpeg: No such file or directory
chmod: iView_Downloader_OSX_6.8.command: No such file or directory
logout

[Process completed]

and the iView_Downloader_OSX_6.8.command shell has the message of insufficient access priviledges.

Did I implement the scripts correctly?

Thanks again

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

 

So you've extracted the zip file to a folder and run the runme_first and this is the output?
If that's what you did then I have no idea why it's not working... I'll see if I can find a Mac I can test this on tomorrow.
Is it possible to change the permissions manually?

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

 

Hi Vipher. Thanks again for your update.

Yes - after extracting from the zip file, the iView_Downloader folder with individual files were all there (incl the Iview Downloader Unix Shell Script, read me.txt, runme_first etc).

This was the output from the runme_first file when I tried to execute it. I tried to manually change permissions for all of the individual files within the folder, but with no joy.

Thanks again for working on this.
