Saving mp3 files from podcasts using Google Reader #11

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run the attached fetch_podcasts.py
2. Listen to the resulting mp3 files.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Saved mp3 files are garbled.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

GoogleReader-standalone-0.5.1.tar.gz and pyrfeed-0.5.1.tar.gz (not from the
svn repository) on Windows XP with python2.5 and wxpython2.8.

Additional Details:

As a means of meeting your goal to provide "a huge way to configure what
you really need" I thought I would send along a script that I cobbled
together this morning to accomplish the goal of saving mp3s from podcasts
to a removable drive using google reader.

Additionally, I though I would ask some advice on how the saving of mp3
files using this script could be improved.

I use google reader specifically for podcasts, so I'd like to periodically
take the audio files that I either star (or share with others) along with
me on my mp3 player (where I use an SD card for storage, so the device
never really gets connected to my computer, just the card).

Please let me know if this script would be useful in extending the
functionality of pyrfeed.

My apologies if the details of this suggestion are something of a non-sequitur;
although the spirit of the suggestion remains true: I'd like to be able to save
enclosures from a list of starred (or filtered) items to a disk.

Tell me, if I use the code for pyrfeed as a starting place and wanted to know 
how to
refer to an enclosure within a feed, would I do best to be looking at a specific
section of \pyrfeed\Gui\wx\Reader.py ?

Please let me know when the developer documentation is available for this 
application.

If there is any way that I could contribute to the project, to help test or 
document
this work, please feel free to let me know.

I read your request. I'll try to answer it this weekend.

Just a quick note to say I was able to resolve the issue of saving of mp3
files using the script I mentioned last time.  The solution was to use
urllib.urlretrieve as opposed to urllib.urlopen.  I'll continue to look into
integrating this idea into pyrfeed.  If you make any progress on this, please 
let me
know.  Thanks!
