I went looking for what might be usable to save to the hard drive for later playback, and found youtube-dl, and successfully installed, even trying to update, maybe successful, maybe not. The problem is that the copy and pasted URL comes up with a HTTP Error 403: Forbidden, after a certain amount of stuffing around to try and sort out the correct URL, the earlier incomplete variants gave an URL Unsupported error. The failure appears to be when it requests the f4m manifest.
As others have noted python-iview works well. I'll sent you an APT repository for that off-list.
Also youtube-dl works really well for SBS, so if you have problems with ABC
you could spend some time watching SBS which has a huge amount of quality content.
Looking for a specific program, the Edinburgh Military Tattoo, that is on the ABC and not SBS. I do agree that SBS has a lot of good programs, but do not get to watching very much of anything, doing too much else. Regards, Mark Trickett
