[youtube-dl] Download files from youtube.com or other video platforms
Without Swapper there is not enough memory to process a large download. As you have it installed, there should be enough memory, so I don't know what is causing your problem. If it is still stuck, you could reboot and restart the download to reprocess the download file.- MontysEvilTwin

[youtube-dl] Download files from youtube.com or other video platforms
Re. your above post, the connection to iPlayer is likely throttled so you won't get your full internet speed: it took one hour fifty two minutes to download 4.83 GB. Do you have swapper installed (you should have it installed on the HDR-FOX, automatically)? If not, ffmpeg will run out of memory...- MontysEvilTwin

Negative free space value reported in WebIf
The problem is that if the Humax software gets tricked into thinking there is no free space it will stop the unit recording. I have only seen this (false no free space indication) with three or more remote NFS mounts on one box. I wonder if virtual-disk2 is adding to the issue? This can be fixed...- MontysEvilTwin

The standard way to install ffmpeg on Windows is to place the binaries in C:\ffmpeg\bin and then add ffmpeg to the system path. The steps are outlined here.- MontysEvilTwin

[youtube-dl] Download files from youtube.com or other video platforms
The mp4 format uses headers and an audio stream doesn't. The audio still has timestamps though and should play correctly. The initial download also has the streams in the wrong order (audio = stream 0, video = stream 1). Ffmpeg fixes the order and header, making the mp4 file fully compliant with...- MontysEvilTwin

Archiving
The standard def. recordings are unencrypted. The high def. ones are encrypted. I wonder how the Humax YouView boxes generate the encryption key? If it is like the HDR-FOX it could be based on the MAC address and serial number.- MontysEvilTwin

[youtube-dl] Download files from youtube.com or other video platforms
It does not work with iPlayer. I did download a series from CBC (Windows version of youtube-dl): inputting the address for the main series page (where links to all episodes were present) downloaded all episodes with just one command line. In iPlayer you seem to need to input the URL of each...- MontysEvilTwin

Excuse me. I made a quick post to point to the correct solution and that was the end of it as far as I was concerned.

The post was not just for you. You said you formatted it with 'fixdisk' but you didn't. Fixdisk runs in maintenance mode and can fix some disk, partition table and filesystem errors: it does not format the disk. The correct procedure (as described in the link to the previous thread that I...- MontysEvilTwin

FF through recording jumps back to beginning
Simply remuxing the output with ffmpeg will fix the timestamps. However, there are problems with the audiodesciption track as described here. In addition, there is a problem with the channel Dave and sometimes ITV2+1 (plus probably some other channels) in that the audio description channel seems...- MontysEvilTwin

FF through recording jumps back to beginning
I was talking about the timestamps within the ts files. I thought that nicesplice fixed the timestamps in the nts files already, or does it just remove the chunks of data corresponding to the bits cropped out? I think that the offset is uniform, in that the same offset is applied to each frame...- MontysEvilTwin

FF through recording jumps back to beginning
I have not seen this problem with nicesplice-cropped recordings, though I have seen it occasionally when playing across a network; when this has happened the playback time on the front panel was wrong. I assumed that it was due to a problem writing to the remote hmt file. The difficulty with...- MontysEvilTwin

You could try adding '--geo-bypass' to the command line. There are other options to try in Youtube-dl if this fails, look for 'geo restriction' in the documentation.- MontysEvilTwin

Do ".ts" video recording (MPEG transport stream) contain multiple program recordings ?
The ffmpeg command line in the quoted example will only copy the main video and audio streams, not the audio description or subtitles (if these streams are present, of course). I have not found one single command line with ffmpeg that covers all eventualities: audio description (AD) is the...- MontysEvilTwin

Do ".ts" video recording (MPEG transport stream) contain multiple program recordings ?
You get metadata for each of the channels in the same multiplex as the recorded channel plus basic information about the streams. In your example, there are four streams: 0 = video, 1 = main audio, 2 = audio description and 3 = DVB-subtitles. By default, ffmpeg only scans five seconds of the...- MontysEvilTwin
