How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

I'd like to tinker round if you're agreeable.

Sure, it's not obfuscated (so you can use Reflector on it to see some of the code).
As you can see from the screen captures via Snipping tool, by running this defective version you can still get an idea of some of the features.
Send me a PM and I will give you a link.

I missed The Paradise Series 2, first time round - and would like to see S2 Episode 7 - it doesn't download for me.
Has anyone been able to get it?

Hey gxdata, if you get a chance could you try the latest version of iViewRipper (v1.02) ? It seems fine now with The Paradise S02E07. Addressed a couple other small issues as well.

I had success with The Paradise S2 Ep7, thanks. But Noirhouse S2 Ep1 fails. (filtering out all the possible typos in iView metadata is a never-ending task).
(It seems the Whirlpool SBS thread is used de facto for iView)
Left you a PM here, yesterday, btw.
Will test the latest version of iViewRipper more fully later today, and report.
(For starters - observations, questions)
* I don't like the Open button. If a user wants to open the download folder, I suggest it is better done from a menu at the top of the form.
* Suggest that the Settings button is (likewise) more appropriate from a menu pulldown.
* Some buttons would benefit from ToolTips.
* The Download / View Episodes buttons are sometimes inappropriate (toggling flag problem?)
* I like to see the number of Series in a particular Category or filtered listview (eg, in News, or Latest)
* Is the list of Series seen when clicking the Home button and the iView button different, or the same?
* Does the Home button totally refresh the read of Catalog?

I was contacted about this today.

There is a LineFeed character that needs stripping out of the filename.

Thanks for the tip mce, yep I see that too:
"Noirhouse Series 2 Episode 1 Macguffin, Sweet Macguffin\n.mp4"
What's that \n doing there
I'll see if I can put a patch in iViewRipper to handle it.

Also thanks for your feedback gxdata - will respond later.

Is there any update to this issue with the superfluous \n?
Got my fingers crossed!

I missed New Tricks S10 Ep9 - does anyone still have it saved to disk? PM me if I can get it via a download.

OK - got it, thanks Wahroonga Farm

M3M1E,

Thanks for working on iViewRipper.

I look forward to trying it out over the next few days
