Is there a way to download subtitles at the same time as the programmes from the BBC? I can get them from the site, but it requires several steps and assorted software. It would be a lot easier if FreeRapid could handle it.

BBC plugin v1.1.0 now supports subtitle download
The default setting is disabled. You can enable it through plugin option.

BBC plugin v1.1.1 supports quality chooser



There is issue with BBC iplayer plugin, sometimes I get 0 byte flv (the RTMP message is "Access denied"). The file can be downloaded successfully (non 0 byte flv) by restarting the download process, sometimes not just once but twice or 3 times in order to download the file. I suspect it has something to do with authExpires field in media selector descriptor.

Okay, finally figure out what happened. Turns out, the streams supplied by akamai are not downloadable, thus 0 byte flv. So plugin v1.1.2 prefers non-akamai streams (limelight being the highest priority).

Thank you very much. This program just keeps getting better!
