Not yet, I'm piecing it together now - I have figured out where I was going wrong, though.

Edit: I think I've got it, but I'll have to wait until tomorrow to make sure. It's a little complicated, are you a programmer of any sort?

No, but I can find my way around (very) basic Terminal / Console stuff on the Mac. I was planning to have a play around with this or this, but I'd need the address of the stream to do it, which is where I think I'll struggle.

Well, I've been using rtmpdump (v1.5a) for a while in my iPlayer script, and it works pretty well. I've included my current script below - have a play around with it tomorrow and see what you get.

getMoyles.sh

NB: There is no error handling in the current script.

[Ed Pummelon]

Thanks a lot, looking forward to having a play around with that.

Nice Script, thanks for that.

Boo, BBC team are no fun. Although the actual console is at http://bbcami.s3.amazonaws.com/live_moyles.html you could get to the debug and take control of the modules at http://bbcami.s3.amazonaws.com/live_debug_moyles.html but they deleted it

[Console]

Thanks a lot, looking forward to having a play around with that.

My altered script is recording this morning: -

getMoyles.sh

[Ed Pummelon]

Cheers Console

EDIT: Weird, I installed get_iPlayer yesterday (which is supposed to be backwards compatible with rtmpdump if I understand it right, but I now get:

Code: Select all

./getMoyles.sh: line 71: line: command not found
./getMoyles.sh: line 71: line: command not found
./getMoyles.sh: line 112: rtmpdump: command not found

Maybe I need to dig around for rtmpdump 1.5? This is in the Unix terminal on a Mac, so maybe that's making a difference as well. I'm at the edge of my understanding of this stuff, but I'll keep playing.

No video Tuesday and no video of today's show live. I also tried the Tuesday version of Zane's show.
All I get for all three is the text messages coming up and of course Dom's Al Fresco quiz today.
The management has locked those outside of Britain from receiving the live video.

Bummed. During the last trial I got to watch some of the show.

Interesting - so it seems because of the unique way the BBC is funded, people overseas are allowed to listen to them talking but not watch them doing it.

EDIT: Just checked the webcam, as the people administrating the PC obviously believe the live feed is a subversive influence. Why is the gimp Fincham in so early today?

I've altered the file above to be more compatible with you Mac terminal. At the top of the file is a variable in which you need to put the location of the rtmpdump executable, as the script currently can't find it in any of your $PATH directories.

[Ed Pummelon]

Your sir, are a gent. Thank a lot, I'll have a play.

[Yudster]

Why is the gimp Fincham in so early today?

To maximise the opportunity to have people say happy birthday to him and get his voice on the radio of course.

Ah, I forgot it was his birthday. Great.

[Yudster]

Is he really only 21? He looks mid thirties at least.

By the way, if its incentive for anyone to look at the video feed who wouldn't normally, Carrie is looking absolutely gorgeous today.

As I'm sure you've realised, I have no idea what I'm doing really, I'm just hacking about trying to learn as I go. I think I'm going to have to shelve this for now and try and have a proper "teach yourself" session at the weekend. Thanks for helping out though, I appreciate it.

I'm sure they said 24 not long ago.

Ed, I wouldn't bother listening back to the show today if that's what you usually do.

At least that now means I can be guilt free if you end up heading to radio 1 to kill Matt Fincham

I was actually wondering if the video streaming might show him in a different light - perhaps in real life he isn't as wet and desperate as he comes across when you can only hear his voice. Haven't seen enough yet to tell, but I'm going to grit my teeth and stay optimistic.

[jocky85]

Well there's plenty to see/hear today!!

Oh dear, that sense of impending doom is growing..........

I missed the start of today's webcast, I only have from about 7.40am. Can someone please upload the whole show if you have it?

Muchos grassy arse!

[Ed Pummelon]

Neil, are you are OK to upload from 7.40 as well just in case? I'm working on a way to be able to cap this as well so will hopefully be able to help out in the future, but I'm not there yet.

[Console]

I'm uploading my version now, although it may take a couple of hours.

You are doing the Lord's work, Master Yoda^H^H^H^H Console.

Sure, if Console's computer all explode, otherwise, there's no need. It kills my download speeds to upload, so unless Console calls in from the Burns Unit...
