Re: How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders


a: Episode ID number
b: Episode Name

d: Description
e: Category
f: Date Added
g: Date Expires
h: Date Broadcast
i: File Size
j: Duration (in Seconds)
k: "go to website" Text for hyperlink
l: URL used in hyperlink

m: maturity classification (if missing then I think is the equivalent of "E" I've only seen it happen on news/current affairs)
n: file name

s: series screenshot

u: season number
v: episode number

Code:
http://tviview.abc.net.au/iview/api2/?series=3134038,3159328,3130146,3121597,3142826,3132936,2765543,3169248,3158494,2955433
my best guess as to why c doesn't exist is that c in the xml series section (a to f prior to the stepped episode info) contains the description of the series, and if memory serves me there have been shows where each episode merely contains the series description, ergo if episodes d does not exist use series c .

unable to find an indicator for captions, though judging by the slight delay by the iview player showing the availability and the fact that the caption files match the name given in n (except of course the extension) it appears it may simply do a search in http://www.abc.net.au/iview/captions/ for n.xml if matches then is available if not then no captions available

Anywho or mce can tell you for certain

anyway hope this helps
