Yes, there are some really nice features that it's possible have gone un-noticed - I have attached an image of the pictures shown in iViewRipper v2.4.2 BETA - which have an active zone in each of the corners:
top L: download the image associated with this show
top R: activates your browser, and goes to the web page at iView for this show
bottom L: the S indicates that sub-titles (captions) are available, and can be downloaded
bottom R: the ? gives "metadata" about the show - size, duration, expiry date, etc
If you care to use the Save Database button, the .DB file can be loaded at some later time. This can be useful to see/save the Description, even after the show has expired. If the show has expired, a warning message pops up indicating that this video may not be available to download (sometimes, it is still about after the expiry date). Of course, the Description and the image are.
However, there are still some glitches (apart from occasional iView mis-naming of show titles, and image-video mis-matching); the awkward one is that ffmpeg stalls fairly often (and I have put recent versions in place). That's most likely out of the control of 'Ripper, though.
If I have time, I may put together a PDF file with images that shows some of these features. I've described just a couple here.
Not to say that I would like a few additional aids - which are fairly easy to code.
