Can you update the batch file downloader some time as well? It's great to queue up and let it go.

Cheers.

Hi mce,
A possible global bug in iVN Lite.

Running latest iViewNapperLite.hta (directory number is 20100816) in XP Home SP3
IE error message thrown at beginning, letting nothing run after the iVN Lite window opens.

Internet Explorer Script Error

Line: 28
Char: 3
Error: Invalid procedure call or argument: 'left'
Code: 0
URL:  file:///C:/Program%20Files/iViewNapperLite_20100816/ivnlite.vbs

We've been running iVN Lite smoothly for many months now.
Yesterday we applied KB983583 - "Security Update for .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 and 3.5 SP1 on Windows SErver 2003 and Windows XP x86" and the updater reported successful installation.
The bug began after that update - for what it's worth.

The big Napper (your latest version 20101014) runs fine.

thanks for all your support for your apps!

"ABC iView Downloader (batch version) v15.70" started failing on wed 13/10/2010. Is this likely the same problem mentioned by "mce" above?

I noticed that v15.7 uses "http://173.230.146.115/iview/api/?seriesIndex" which is empty now but "http://173.230.146.115/iview/api2/?seriesIndex" seems to have JSON type data.

I am not a napper user, but was just wondering does napper shares the same backend json_parser.exe and json_parser_ser.exe binaries? Is possible to use the napper JSON parser as quick workaround till next version comes out.

For the record iVN uses .Net framework 3.5 inbuilt deserialize class for JSON.

iVNlite uses a Javascript class.

BTW: There is no update to iVNlite yet, hopefullt it will be today but may be a bit longer.

Cleared the cache. Downloaded iviewnapper_20100816 from http://users.on.net/~m.elliott/i/index.html. Same result as before - cannot find the catalog. ????

Why not using the latest - ie, 14 October 2010 version?

[Anywho]

Can someone who gets their downloads via the Akamai server please post the page source of this URL (don't forget to hide your IP address first! ):

http://tviview.abc.net.au/iview/auth/?v2

I need it to finish the iView Downloader batch file version. I've done some changes and this is the last piece that needs to be done.

Thanks!
