Can confirm Pigeon's findings. However, there are several variations of BBC pages, seemingly based on 1) If you are seen to be connecting from UK ip address 2) Age of the BBC webpage.
giving variations with a href, param and .xml and .sxml. I've tweaked pigeon's code by adding one more variation I've encountered elsif ($browser->content =~ /(http:[^":]+?playlist\.s?xml)/) { $playlist_xml = $1; $playlist_xml =~ s/\\//g; } Think this is an upstream issue; have also reported my findings on http://code.google.com/p/get-flash-videos/issues/detail?id=169 ** Bug watch added: code.google.com/p/get-flash-videos/issues #169 http://code.google.com/p/get-flash-videos/issues/detail?id=169 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1210314 Title: get-flash-videos failing to download some BBC news videos (possibly other BBC videos too) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/get-flash-videos/+bug/1210314/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
