I'm getting problems such as the below from iview-cli. Is it working for other people or have the ABC changed something?
ABC made a change on 13 June that affected clients connected through unmetered plans.
For those using browsers, it now requires a newer (Pepper) Flash version. As far as I know on Linux, this is only available in Chrome. But you can pull the plugin out of the Chrome package and use it in Chromium.
The recent change to python-iview gets around the problem by falling back to a different host on failure, which means that the transfer will be metered.

I tried firebug and got this error: NetworkError: 403 Forbidden - http://iviewum-vh.akamaihd.net/z/playback/_definst_ /timeteam_19_05.mp4/0_f... For the latest in the saga see http://www2b.abc.net.au/tmb/Client/Message.aspx?b=98&m=27644&ps=50&dm=2 Contrary to what many contributors on this message board say, it is NOT flash at fault. There is some weird non-windows behaviour with the new handshaking process that serves up unmetered data for us minority who have an ISP that has signed up to the ABC's offer. It also affects MACs. You _can_ use chrome on linux and watch iview, but it comes Metered at the moment, at least on Internode. My son suggests that it might be in the client detection algorithm.
