How to use iView (ABC Australia) downloaders

[blood.eaglz]

hey mce, if possible can you drop/turn into toggle, the series tag from the output filename, with the series name now included in the episode tag, some files become ridiculously long, especially for my beyonwiz

Sure, next version.

The url ( http://tviview.abc.net.au/iview/api2/?series=3202772 ) for the series comes back as an empty json object. ( ie: [] )

Yes, I had a record of an old JSON file and so I just fooled it to go to the other URL (returns useable stuff, see my second JSON post). Odd things happen - I'm always on alert for a changed arrangement.

What I do is to allow user to double-click a textbox that has the full name (Series + Episode), and edit it however needed.
That requires a new textbox, and a bit of coding, however (since I save a description file, and the image - which are also renamed).

I have been saving Play School for kids, and the last week iView has omitted the day (- Monday) that is usually tagged on. Otherwise, all eps have the same name for a week. So the renaming is useful for that.

I have iViewDownloader v7.0 for OSX and having a few issues lately.

I know that it's been pulled due to the legal action, but it still works - kind of.

I can updated the program list, but it now only contains kids shows (and many full series strangely).

The series.txt file contains the actual latest list of all iview shows but the possibleshows.txt is just a cut down list.

Any idea how to get the full list into possibleshows.txt so I can download some adult stuff?

Just a quick update; after the ABC asked me to remove iviewfox I had a bit of a think about an alternative and I stumbled upon xVideoServiceThief. It supports rtmpe and works on windows, OSX and linux.

Unfortuanately at the moment it doesn't support passing extra rtmp parameters. I have posted in the xVST forums and have received a response from the developer that this feature will be available in the next release.

It should also be possible to create a plugin for plus7 I think.

I've just been having a look at the contents of series.txt and it appears there is a new format.

Many of the files now have a 5 digit ID, where previously they were 6 for a show and 7 digits for a series ID.

Anybody skilled at SED to modify the file parsing?

I've had a play but it's beyond my primitive skills.

Seems it has not been accessible since about 4:00PM on 26/12/2014 - they probably haven't cleaned up the catalog entries.
There are a few others that behave that way - eg, allthe Tropfest episodes, currently.

Hi,

As most know, iviewnapperlite worked well with IE8 but had incompatibilities with IE9. It has been removed from MCE's website, so just wondering whether anyone has made any progress on making it compatible with IE9?

Thanks!
