Yes I only use internal tor proxy provided by plugin. Wondered if unblocking was feasible by you clever techy guys?
Am in uk now and FRD downloads TV fine from BBCiPlayer - licence or no licence.

Thanks for your reply.
I remembered about deleting 'tor-gb' directory, and now it works fine.
I used to be able to download TV files as well, but that has been scuppered by the BBC for quite a while. Any chance of a fix for that at some point?
Cheers.

I am experiencing problems using FRD for BBC in Portugal again.
Worked fine last week, but now whenever I try downloading BBC radio progs the programme freezes and I get the "fatal error" message.
Any ideas?
In hope

Many thanks for your reply Tongshot.
I'll bide my time and see if you clever guys can come up with a solution for overseas BBC TV downloaders.
Pleased to see that the radio progs can still be downloaded.
Cheers

BBC TV - 8 years ago
Hi
First time I've tried the TV option for ages. I either get ERROR or a download completed instantly with 0 MB.
This is the prog:
Have BBC managed to scupper downloading abroad now?

Many many thanks for all your patient help Tong2shot.
I have now deleted all the items in the tor-gb directory, and, touch wood, all seems to be working normally again.

Just trying to download another radio programme without TOR
Started OK but then the whole thing froze again.
Have searched for this tor-gb directory without success.

Still not able to find a way of deleting 'tor-gb' directory in FRD config directory

Many thanks. OPTIONS button now working, but still no joy in downloading. Tried many different configurations.
Also it freezes when trying to download and can only close with task manager.

No it's not greyed out.
When I click on it, it sort of shudders but does not open up the options.
Everything else appears normal in that I can download from YouTube etc, but BBC radio and TV just show an immediate ERROR message and a renewal countdown of 1.30 which can be reduced to 4 secs by the resume button.

Yes I checked immediately for new plugins and there are none: the freshly downloaded file is identical to the deleted one
I have also rebooted to see if that affects anything.
This is the first time that the Options button on BBC plugins preferences has failed to respond.

Hi again Tongshot
Well I've deleted the last version I downloaded and started again.
There was still a threat warning which I overruled.
No change unfortunately and the OPTIONS button for bbc plugins still won't respond. What's gone wrong?

Thanks again.
'Options' on bbc plugins does not now seem to be functioning and I therefore cannot change Kbps.
When I downloaded the latest version of FRD my antivirus programme detected something and shutdown the computer. Perhaps this has something to do with the latest problem. It had been working fine up until Monday night, so I find it hard to understand why it all suddenly went pear-s

Hope these two files have some useful info; there are two more 'LCK' files which won't attach.
Radio programmes will not download with TOR disabled either.
Many thanks for your help: much appreciated.

Hi Tongshot
Thanks for your reply.
Just downloaded v1.2.7 with no difference.
Please bear with an illiterate but not sure what you mean by app.log - how to I find and attach this?
Also programme freezes when I try and download from bbc now and I have to close using alt-ctrl-delete.
Cheers

I was suddenly unable to download any BBC radio or TV programmes from the website last night - always fatal error message.
This morning I updated to latest version of FRD, updated plugins and set preferences to Limelight and enable TOR - all to no avail.
Any suggestions please?

I have tried this tweak with this:
making it:
It will still not play nor download, though there is a message saying it will only work on YouTube.
Any chance of a fix to this problem yet?

Many thanks for this help Tong2shot. I have selected "Limelight" in the "Preferred CDN" field as the article suggests and now I find I can download the TV option as well - first time! I would never have thought of this and am really grateful to you for your help.
I just now have to see whether this setting works for radio or if I have to move back to Akamai for this.

I am using the latest version of FRD and have updated all the plugins - I'm not quite sure what you mean by "plugin version".
There is some inconsistency in that some programmes download immediately, for example:
and some after several attempts or not at all, for example:
Needless to say I'm very grateful to get anything at all!

Hi everyone
Until this morning I have been happily able to download old radio broadcasts from all stations on the BBC radio iplayer, using FRD.
This morning I have received only ERROR messages on all attempts, and have also downloaded the latest version (FreeRapid-0.9u4) with no luck.
Has the BBC made some alteration to their website, and will FRD be able to find a plugin to cope with it
