Description Florian Hubold 2015-06-09 13:48:08 CEST
Latest updates on BBC side require an update of get_iplayer. Simple version update to 2.94. is sufficient as confirmed via forums.

waiting for cauldron to reopen and mga5 to be branched of to submit.

2.94 has already been pushed to cauldron, now the mga5 update has also been submitted to core/updates_testing as get_iplayer-2.94-1.mga5


For the version update itself, this falls under the exception for online-bound services IMHO - without the version update this package is basically useless. 

Please test, should be sufficient to test playing anything from http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer but it seems this only works from the UK.
I tried via UK proxy and that does not seems to suffice.
The guy who reported this in forums confirmed it is working:

x86_64 mga5 stable

Installed get_iplayer 2.90 then enabled updates testing and installed
get_iplayer-2.94-1.mga5.noarch.rpm.

$ get_iplayer > programmes

to obtain a readable list of available programmes.  Looked for index numbers for the Danish series Cordon, episodes 1 and 2.

$ get_iplayer modes=best --get 288 --force
$ get_iplayer modes=best --get 287 --force

These commands downloaded the required episodes as mp4 files at 1280x720.  These played fine in vlc.
