They appear to be http:// downloads - how do I do that easily, and know when the show has completed download?

Kung Fu Kitchen Ep 2 - Mochi - Japan (aired: 24/01)
How To Survive A Disaster Full Ep

Try CURL or WGET. They'll handle http:// links - just like a regular download ;)

Is there a transform that I could run to convert the *.flv to a *.mp4 (for instance) with no loss of visual or auditory quality?

Any assistance most gratefully apprised, thank you.

This is possible using ffmpeg. Someone gave me the correct parametrs to do this for a format OK for an iPad, but I' not sure what you would need for your particular Media Player.

Could you download and install MediaInfo from here -
http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en/Download/Windows
then in Windows Explorer, right-click on a MP4 file that works on your Media Player, and take a look at the information?

The MediaInfo output (exported from MediaInfo in Text format) for an SBS .FLV show that I just DL @ 128K for your benefit is as follows -

So what's the URL I give to them? The same one fed into rtmpdump I guess.
Maybe I should dump a batch file with curl syntax + the URL, when an HTTP -type address is detected rather than the expected rtmp://

[Edit]
Things change in a day. Now there are TWO entries for 'How to Survive a Disaster', both rtmp:// not http://

But I see that the XML control file (557485.XML) for the 'Kung Fu Kitchen Ep 2 - Mochi - Japan' show gives me a base address that I can't use: "E"

<meta base="E"/>

Any ideas? Anywho? Anyone?

KFK_Ep2... Doesn't show on the SBS website... "E" = "Expired" perhaps?

"E" is the folder name:

http://www.sbs.com.au/chinese/video/smil/index/standalone/557485
Code:

http://player.sbs.com.au/playerassets/videoad/v4/E/NT_F_Kung_Fu_Kitchen_p_2_21_557485_1000K.mp4
But seems they have removed video!!:D

Thanks for the reply, Bahman

How do you discover that folder name? or, was that just an example, and the URL that I am after is:
Code:

http://player.sbs.com.au/playerassets/videoad/v4/E/NT_F_Kung_Fu_Kitchen_p_2_21_557485_1000K.mp4
I have no problems with the other video - I was just remarking that there are TWO entries for it today, with different addresses -
557223 and 557639

A day before, there was just ONE menu entry, and it had an http:// address (ie, the <meta base> tag had rtmp://).

I used IDM, and detects the download link automatically!! So, I understood that "E" is folder name of this video!!:)
Also I used Wireshark in order to see if there is another link or not(because That link is "not found"), after that I click on play, but I got the same url and , I didn't have any send/receive packets after server sent the url path!!

Perhaps, they have changed their streaming system from rtmp to http!!:)

3 shows now with HTTP protocol -

One Man And His Campervan Ep 7 - Trossachs
Modern Slavery Ep 2
Love At First Hiccup

SBSNapper won't download these.

They have entries like <meta base="E"/>

Does anyone have ideas about how to download these? Adam M-W ?

Trying to figure this weird base thing out.

If it has D or E in the base tag, is the file actually available for download at all?

D, E, M are base that I have seen.
But then, almost as I watch, they put up another menu / catalog item for one of those "HTTP" shows, that is a regular rtmp:// protocol address.

As of now (midday Sat 4Feb) I think all of those 3 are available as regular downloads.

What is more disturbing is that I can't browse (IE, Opera) to the SBS Player: it redirects to On Demand. Ominous?

Have you had a look at Adam M-W's python scripts for handling On Demand catalogs, menus? I'm not progressing far with understanding how to use the information.
