Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

I know there have been a few ABC iView issue of late. The comments on those have helped immensely but I haven't been able to get the 'movie' length episodes to work as they have their own unique pages. Any advice or assistance would be great.

The URLs are now only available by following the 'share' links, otherwise using the direct link from the image appears to act as a hidden $_POST action or similar. Also ensure you have the latest version of -dl sudo youtube-dl -U Cheers

Thanks for that. I've updated to the latest version. the share link works for the standard tv shows but not for the 'movie length' ones such as the link above. (https://iview.abc.net.au/show/octonauts-and-operation-deep-freeze). If its not possible do fix it (or a work around) just let me know and I'll stop bugging you.

P.S. LOVE the program!

noideajase commented 6 years ago

I was sharing the work around I found as I had the same issue with normal length shows the same day and an update of the package and using the link worked in that case. Unfortunately looks like my info did not help you further. Yeah these guys have put together an awesome package - I couldn't code something like this to save myself :-)

If you search through the page source code you can find the ID for the episode and then use http://[PAGE URL]/video/[VIDEO ID]. Tested and works. Just not sure if you want to vary the code to do this somewhat specific thing for just this site.

I tried to implement @NateWard https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/16868#issuecomment-403723149 in #23401. It worked for me on a few cursory tests, but happy for more eyeballs giving it a go (because, you know, you need to give a go to have a go, or something...)

gamer191 commented 2 years ago

This is no longer an issue, because clicking the play button on movies, on abc iview, redirects to a URL which does work in youtube-dl. That said, youtube-dl should do this redirect automatically, so imo this issue should be kept open.
