iplayer_get geliştiren: ingestre

This plugin is designed to assist the user in using the get_iplayer program. It will detect when a BBC iplayer webpage is being shown, and add a link to programme pages that can be configured to launch get_iplayer to download that programme.

Please note that there are some customisations you must perform to get this working. Most notably you must have the get_iplayer software installed, but in addition there is a registry entry that tells firefox what to do when the user clicks the generated "iplayer://" link (ie: run a command file - iplayer.cmd) and also the command file itself that will pass the programme ID in the link to the get_iplayer software

Examples of these two customisations are provided below

Registry entry as follows. Put into a file called iplayer.reg and then double click the file (assumes get_iplayer installed in C:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer)

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\iplayer]
@="URL:iplayer Protocol"
"URL Protocol"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\iplayer\shell]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\iplayer\shell\open]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\iplayer\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\get_iplayer\\iplayer.cmd\" \"%1\""


Command file as follows
(Name this iplayer.cmd and place in C:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer)

@echo off
setlocal
set GIP_INST=%~dp0
if #%GIP_INST:~-1%# == #\# set GIP_INST=%GIP_INST:~0,-1%
if "%GIP_PATH%" == "" set GIP_PATH=%GIP_INST%\perl;%GIP_INST%\utils;%PATH%
if not "%GIP_PATH%" == "" set PATH=%GIP_PATH%
c:
cd "\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer"
set bbcpid=%1%
set bbcpid=%bbcpid:~11,8%
echo.%bbcpid%
perl.exe get_iplayer.pl --pid %bbcpid% --pid-recursive
