How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

(http://stream-recorder.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7039)

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

by-gum - re your problems, when was this? If in the last hour or so, then see my previous post.

I'm using Windows downloaders, and none of them currently work with iView despite the iView player/viewer working fine with 10 separate series, approx 30 separate shows. [Edit: 2hrs later than my reply, Viiew Player is working again for me]

gxdata - also happened yesterday - when I first started on this journey. The index still downloads ok as of 15:57 AEST (475 entries)

Can anyone help with iView_Downloader_OSX? I run v6.8 which fixes the problem of the ABC Index having moved, but I have also tried v6.7.3 (after updating the index bit) with the same result.

I run a PPC G5 with 10.5.8 and took the precaution of building rtmpdump using Macports.

The error is shown below.
Is the fact that the host and token are blank/empty significant?

Note:
I am trying this because I can't get the iViewfox addon in Firefox to work - any ideas there?

On line 20 of the .command file change the params to:

Code:



SWFPARAMS='-w 96cc76f1d5385fb5cda6e2ce5c73323a399043d0bb6c687edd807e5c73c42b37 -x 2122 -V'

That will enable "Verbose command output".

More info: http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/rtmpdump.1.html

I remember that I had problems getting rtmpdump working on pre 10.6 OSX systems because of issues with Open SSL. I would hazard a guess that that is causing the authentication/token issues.

Delete your old "deep_10_01_02.mp4" file and try again. It's likely to be 0 bytes in size. RTMPDump cannot resume a file that is 0 bytes in length (no info for it).

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

Anywho - Thanks -tried it and the error report is different:

The "iView_Downloader_OSX" is not putting the "auth" code in for some reason (a bug perhaps?). :(

Yep. I've just had a look at the source code for "iView_Downloader_OSX"... Yes, it's a bug. It's looking in the wrong place for the "auth" token. It needs to be changed so that it's looking for it here:

http://tviview.abc.net.au/iview/auth/?v2

That time it looked like you were getting it from the Akamai server (usually metered downloads). Your previous attempts were from the Hostworks server (usually un-metered downloads). Anyway, this showed another bug in the script. You'll need to change the line:

Code:

"$CURDIR"/"$FLVSTREAMER" --resume -r rtmp://cp53909.edgefcs.net////flash/playback/_definst_/$SHOWPATH -t rtmp://cp53909.edgefcs.net/ondemand?auth=$TOKEN -o "$CURDIR"/"$FILENAME" $SWFPARAMS

Code:

"$CURDIR"/"$FLVSTREAMER" --resume -r rtmp://cp53909.edgefcs.net////flash/playback/_definst_/$SHOWPATH -a ondemand?auth=$TOKEN -o "$CURDIR"/"$FILENAME" $SWFPARAMS

The one for Hostworks will need to be changed from:

Code:

"$CURDIR"/"$FLVSTREAMER" --resume -r rtmp://203.18.195.10/ondemand?auth=$TOKEN -y $SHOWPATH -o "$CURDIR"/"$FILENAME" $SWFPARAMS

Code:

"$CURDIR"/"$FLVSTREAMER" --resume -r rtmp://203.18.195.10/ -a ondemand?auth=$TOKEN -y $SHOWPATH -o "$CURDIR"/"$FILENAME" $SWFPARAMS

They're the differences I can see so far between the OSX script and the Windows script.
