Re: [orca-list] {OT} how to use get-iplayer?

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

I've used get_iplayer alot over the years, but at the moment am having issues recording because of rtmpdump 
errors, that do not make sense as I do have a newer version tha n the minimum required, maybe too new?
A nyway, I have not done many, hardly any searches ever, mostly I just look at the index of shows, using less 
so they don't scroll off screen before I can read them. 
New shows are shown first, and then the entire available index, and when I want a show or shows I just use it 
with -g and the index numbers, occasionally another option. 
It sounbds like your show was taken down for some reason, but I'm in a hurry, can't investigate things right 
now. I usually do podcasts from a podcast program like gpodder, even thunderbird at times, and use 
get_iplayer for video, TV shows. 
For shows that are not podcasted I' do not have experience, i;.e. not used get_iplayer to look for radio 
programming, only tv. 
I use stream-ripper, and set it up to record at a certain time if I want something from an audio stream and I 
know the hour, so this should certainly work for BBC content that's not podcasted.
As I mentioned, I'm running right now, but please feel free to contact me off list and we can set up a time 
to talk about this, and trouble shoot get_iplayer issues perhaps. 
One thing I'll mention, some content is never available with get_iplayer it seems, can't remember about 
steaming it from web_site in browser. This is web-only stuff, and most if not all with captions, sign 
language or enhanced audio as I recall.
Let's talk later, tomorrow or after, won't be able to today.
