 Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders
Hi,
Had to register for this forum, this seems to be the place to ask questions about functionality for Iview grabbers/downloaders.
I would like to know if one of you can build some sort of QA tool to check/verify the downloads. Often I find myself watching a downloaded episode, when suddenly the download seems to be incomplete. End of video, bugger.
I have had incomplete downloads with Iviewnapper and also with IviewFox. They all use the same RTMPDump, so that seems to be the problem (and possibly also the solution?)
Would it be possible to have a little tool that scans a certain folder on your local PC, and verify the length of each of the media files with the length/size as stored/reported on the server? If the file is not on the server anymore, bad luck, but for the files that are still there, wouldn't that be very practical?
I wouldn't mind programming something like this myself, but I have zero knowledge of RTMPDump, so I would have to familiarise myself with the syntax etc.
I would think that if you already have the source to download the media files, it would't be too difficult to built this verification tool?
Or am I the only one with incomplete downloads?
