Extending iPlayer
Posted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 12:25 pm
Been tinkering with the iPlayer app (got source from here http://jogtools.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/apps/bbc/), I have added a (currently crude) mechanism for playing any program as long as you know the PID number for it, would anyone be interested in hosting it?
I was hoping to make use of get_iplayer somehow to provide automatic PID identification and searching but that might be a way off yet!
Failing that are there any feeds where all the PIDs can be obtained automatically, I assume there must be, since get_iplayer must use them, but I can't find them anywhere!
Alos does anyone know of similar URLs for streaming other TV channels other than just the BBC ones?
ie the equivalent of this:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/emp/10player.swf?p ... tHeight=70
Also does anyone know of a link to a permanently hosted iPlayer logo (preferably on the BBC website), no bigger than 206 x 100
TIA
