I think they've done it again.
One Plus One for 27/08/2010 seems to have a date in September - cannot download it.

I'm a relative newbie. Apologies if there's a better place for this to be posted.

I'm having trouble lately with iviewnapper and iviewfox maxing out my bandwidth to the point where my home network hangs and almost everything (except the rtmpdump request) times out. Is it possible to put a speed limiter into the GUIs? As far as I understand it, rtmpdump has it as an option.

I am intending to research how to use rtmpdump from the command line myself (haven't taken the time yet), but it would be a great addition for the future.

(Also, any tips on why it is maxing out my bandwidth so badly?)

By the way, thank you so much for the work you guys do.

Hi tabaxter,

You can experiment with adding your own command line options for the inbuilt bandwidth monitoring in RTMPDUMP by using and editing iViewNapperLite.

If you have troubles or you succeed, post back here with what you did and we'll see what we can do.

Yep, the ABC have broken napper, napperlite & downloader.

Sorry, I just use them, the dos box says retrieving token a few tries then closes.

.bat file still working ok for me with 2.2b rtmpdump & hostworks.

I've tried .bat file again and the 1st show downloaded ok. the other two worked only after I deleted the old files (0 bytes).

No idea why it wouldn't work before.

Off-topic, but an interesting report on ABC's video storage requirements:

ABC's video demands causing storage havoc
National broadcaster goes from 3TB in 2003 to 1600TB in 2010

3Tb - right now, that is not much storage at all, from my perspective.

Is it legal to record video streams? Can it be considered as a piracy?
