Re: get_iplayer
The script is now available as get-iplayer in extras-devel, so it can be installed from the Application Manager. There is no GUI or even a shortcut icon, so you need to run it from the command line...

get_iplayer
I couldn't find a mention of this in these forums, so I thought I should let people know that you can now run get_iplayer (http://www.infradead.org/get_iplayer/html/get_iplayer.html) natively on...

Re: TVCatchup script
Thanks for telling me! That's because of a missing dependency. I've uploaded a new version in which it is fixed. It should be available in half an hour or so.

Re: TVCatchup script
It actually uses the same stream. The difference is just that it uses different mplayer options. With the original options the playback can be a bit jittery and mplayer complains about slow CPU, so I...

Re: TVCatchup script
The first problem may be related to browser-switchboard, and the second tends to happen if you run the script from the command line.

Re: TVCatchup script
The new low quality stream on the tvcatchup.com website works fine on N900, but I've updated the script anyway because it gives a little bit better picture quality. The new script uses the built-in...

Re: TVCatchup script
Press "f". You can make it go full screen by default by adding "-fs" to the mplayer arguments in the script. The reason I did not do that was that then there is no obvious way to close it (you have...

TVCatchup script
With the World Cup approaching, I found it really annoying that there is no good way of watching live TV on N900 in the UK. Recorded content works well on iPlayer in the pop-out window, but live TV...
