How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

 

The problem in IE9 was an incompatibility between objects created in VBScript and Javascript.

In the past one could pass these objects between these two languages without problem but since IE9, no.

All one needs to do is to rewrite the VBScript code in Javascript and hey presto, it should work.

Off-topic, possibly a FFMPeg question?

I have an already-downloaded show that came in 2 parts, as two FLV files the first of which ends at exactly where the second starts. Each is about 1 hour play time (and they play well with VLC).

It was a stupid action of mine to think this was going to work, but ..

I did a copy /binary which creates a video file but VLC Media Player says the result is only 1 hour (ie, it is reading header info from the first part).

Ideas?

If you don't have the 2 original FLV files;

Comes in 2 parts. Program is command line.
There is also a GUI fromtend further down the page.
This may fix it.

In my experience with Andy's FLV joiner has problems with FLV's that are not VP6 to the point I stopped using it, probably due to the fact that H264 has come leaps and bounds over the last couple of years, but Andy's FLV Joiner hasn't been updated. With VP6 it works perfectly.

I use AviDemux to join videos (and to edit some) and despite its name its pretty much universal

Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

 

I'm having problems (AVIMuxer, 2.6.1, 64-bit). I've never used this before.

The 2 files have identical format, VP6-E (On2), audio is MPEG-1 Audio layer 3. The bitrates are slightly different (892kbps and 1146kbps) and the WxH and aspect ratio are the same.
I can load file1, choose append and load file2, but I'm at sea with the settings I need (everything I tried fails - often with a suggestion the bitrate is too low).
Is there a help tutorial somewhere?

[edit]
I successfully joined the FLV files to another FLV file which seems fine, use Andy's FLV Joiner.
But I would like to convert to MP4 possibly H264 suitable for iPad. Is AVIDemuxer suitable, or should I use ffmpeg? I do have the right params lying around somwhere - previous help from blood.eaglz I think.

Incidentally, a few days ago I used ffmpeg to convert each part to mp4, then used copy /b to join - but I was disturbed by many tens of error messages from ffmpeg (something about 'droping', in yellow text). Maybe Andy's flv joiner just ignores any problems? (I am guessing).

if by params your talking about my flv to mp4 bat file for ffmpeg, I'm afraid it only works for a h264 flv. As you've stated that the files are VP6 that wont work.

AviDemux should work fine. Personally I use XviD4PSP 5 series (6 series played up for me and lacks some features last time I used it)

hi, I've just tried d/l 'Kumare' using version 20121123 and it returns
'index was outside the bounds of the array'

Please can the experts do their thing and get napper working again?

Thanks

I think this has a problem at the server site - ie, it needs fixing at their end. Wait for a few hours or a day, and it will be fixed.
[edit]
Originally, this was a part of "Sunday Best" series - some searching finds it under "The Best of Sunday Best", here.
The link at that pahe takes you back to the iView Player, here - which is the same NULL result as iViewNapper is presented with.

So - wait, or send a message to ABC via the page at The Best of Sunday Best ?
