UK Free to Air Downloader

[A_n_g_e_l_a]

I get an error on Ubuntu 24.04 running python 3.12 with updating the My5 keys.

Do not manually update. It auto-updates on its own without using selenium driver.

BBC gives:
title = f"[green]{val.split('\t')[0]}[/green]"
^
SyntaxError: f-string expression part cannot include a backslash

The code works fine on Fedora 39 running python 3.12 and Windows 11 running 3.12.
But someone else complained of this issue so I've refactored the code.

Thanks @A_n_g_e_l_a that works perfectly on Ubuntu 24.04 with 3.12 now.

Just wondered can you change the audio stream that the TPTV downloader uses? as for the life of me i cannot get it to download the highest bitrate audio-2, if i change the Nm3u8DL-RE switches in the TPTV.py it still defaults to audio-0. Just wondering if it also happens to any others here that use this, i can grab them fine using the Nm3u8DL-RE gui and an older version just not with the script.

Is there a highest bitrate on this site? It is max 576p I've never looked at audio or any stream quality for that matter. But that is for you to explore and change yourself. Plenty of people can give advice on the intricacies of N_m3u8DL-RE.

Well i would like to specify audio-2 which is the highest bitrate audio offered, however even though i have modified the TPTV.py file to reflect this, it seems to automatically default to audio-0, you can look at most .mpds and they will have the highest video resolution paired with audio-2 usually, as i say i can manually download with the CLI version and the GUI but not with the script, it's not a big issue as i manually clean the formatting of the subs prior to muxing anyway.

Well i would like to specify audio-2 which is the highest bitrate audio offered, however even though i have modified the TPTV.py file to reflect this,

OK. I see what is happening now. There are fairly anonymous streams presented in the json - HLS and DASH. I chose HLS as easier and faster to deal with. But the DASH stream has 96kb/s and 127kb/s
THe manifest json looks like this

So now I have handle on the issue I'll see if I can code for it.

edit - now picking 127kb/s audio

[Attachment 79191 - Click to enlarge]

[A_n_g_e_l_a]

Update to fix TPTV and ITVX. ITVX will now handle Films as a direct download with URL. TPTV had changed since I last coded the extractor. Whilst it gave no errors it didn't give the best audio stream.

I have just give it a try.

And got this error when trying to update My5 from the menu:

My5 auto-updates.

Updating from the menu is only provided if auto-update fails. The README says as much. Your machine installation reporting no selenium is strange when it is clearly listed but it indicates you have made an error.

When a module is reported missing but it is already installed it usually means the user has confused themselves over environments. And a script is calling a program that uses selenium from an environment that doesn't actually have it installed.

For UK-FTA create a new env and activate it. THEN do the pip install -r requirements.txt.

I note you are calling python from source C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python 310\python.exe - that looks to be unusual. Why? It should be in Path as python.
When you do call it, properly you use py -3.10. That is incompatible with the top level menu - it calls scripts by 'python script <script-name>
Unless 'python' produces

Python 3.12.3 (tags/v3.12.3:f6650f9, Apr  9 2024, 14:05:25) [MSC v.1938 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

For UK-FTA create a new env and activate it. THEN do the pip install -r requirements.txt.

I note you are calling python from source C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python 310\python.exe - that looks to be unusual. Why? It should be in Path as python.
When you do call it, properly you use py -3.10. That is incompatible with the top level menu - it calls scripts by 'python script <script-name>
Unless 'python' produces

Python 3.12.3 (tags/v3.12.3:f6650f9, Apr  9 2024, 14:05:25) [MSC v.1938 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>

Then my script suite will not work on your non-standard system.

Reading README it states:

## Requirements
* Python 3.10.*

So I am assuming it only works with version 3.10.* of Python,
is that correct or is it Python 3.10+ up to the latest?


I don't think I have non-standard system
unless having Multiple (two 3.10 and 3.12) Major Versions of Python Package is classed as non-standard ....

I have deleted the DIR
rm $home\git\UK-FTA.14.3
and tried the whole installation using py 3.10 again and when installing same message
about already installed dependencies appeared so I may not be using the set-up
with Multiple Major Versions of Python Package correctly .........
and as you rightly say so..... (just trying to get my head around it) ......

python 3.10?

3.10 and upwards. Poorly phrased I agree. I have 3.12 on a Linux box directly and in a virtual Windows 11 instance. Both run in (with) or without environments. That is up to the user.

My scripts require 'python' to run. On your machine which python? becomes the issue.

Hi @A_n_g_e_l_a using 14.3 and trying to use My5 I get the following error:

Runs on my system but apparently is now deprecated.
So.. find autohmac.py in UK-FTA/ukfta/my5_dl/keys and change

line 19

time_stamp = blah-blah to

time_stamp = int(time.time_ns() // 1_000_000_000)

and do the same in menu.py in UK-FTA change line 43 to the code line above.

If your editor does not give line numbers search for 'time_stamp'

[A_n_g_e_l_a]

I have the same error Win 11 Pro | Py 3.12)

You got it running then, well nearly...
Fix above. My Fedora system must have a very relaxed python parser.

Thanx for clarification.

I have tried 3.12.x and all works (also had to install windows-curses package)
apart from My5 and the error that @Akirainblack has with My5.

I think I may have made a progress when it comes to having
"Multiple (two 3.10 and 3.12) Major Versions of Python Package".

I will release the update tomorrow if you are having indentation issues. It looks to be in autohymac.py. I use tabs to indent and you may have used spaces. Python does not like mixing tabs and spaces and without a good python editor the error is hard to spot..

Thank you very much in advance, great project ...


Coincidentally I was just thinking about that ...

Looks like a minor bug in the C4.py script.

Trying to download an IT Crowd Episode. S01E01 Yesterday's Jam
There is a ' in the episode name that isn't being cleaned properly.
The files all download and decrypt correctly, but don't MUX.
Spits out a " Could not find color or style 'Yesterday' " error.

Thanks for the report. I've seen that on another channel; the module Rich can determine which colour to print by parsing colour-names encased in [] . When it sees something like [ak47] it throws a wobbly. I'll release a fix later today hopefully.

EDIT: When I ran it just to check it all parsed OK on my system and the title looked like this 'The_IT_Crowd_[Yesterday]_S01E01.mkv' But I'll fix it, no problem.

I just realised I was running Python 3.9.
Updated to 3.12 and the bug was gone, but then reappeared on the next episode.

@A_n_g_e_l_a thank you, a quick check and it seems to be working perfectly on my Windows 11 box, same on my Ubuntu box.
Thanks for all your work on this.

I know this might be a stupid question but will this code be able to be created into a GUI similar to freevine for the amateur users who still getting their heads around python coding.

[A_n_g_e_l_a]

I know this might be a stupid question but will this code be able to be created into a GUI similar to freevine for the amateur users who still getting their heads around python coding.

We are all amateur users, but no, it cannot be easily adapted.

I'm a little non-plussed you should want to? And Devine (freevine parent) isn't a GUI - it takes command line arguments.
One style requires you to remember the strings for the command-line arguments - different for each channel before it will successfully download.

The other, UK-FTA, is already a text-based GUI with which it is possible to download without entering any text from the keyboard at all. It follows a menu system and allows a point and click approach to finding what you want from selecting screened alternates. You do not need to remember any arguments; the only text you need to type is a search term 'Coronation Street' - maybe. And if you wish you can paste a page url from the channel to display everything in the series for that url.

Can you help me understand the user-base by describing the advantage that you see in the Devine approach?

[pssh]

Can you help me understand the user-base by describing the advantage that you see in the Devine approach?

Sure,

I have been using Click, Click, Click, Click method on Windows for XX years and like many other people
don't like change.

So instead of using my brain I like to Click, Click, Click, Click instead of thinking about what it does
and how to get it working, because with GUI I hope I would not need to use the CLI and read
the 9 pages this thread has and/or learn how to install Python and other Requirements/Dependencies
even that it has been covered in the Video Stream Downloading section numerous times ....

[billybanana]

I get where people are coming from asking for a GUI having developed the FreevineGUI to go with stabby's excellent code. I wanted something simple to click a few buttons to download what I wanted BUT and this is a big but, I spent several weeks understanding the ins and outs of how all this stuff worked before I built my GUI, so I understood mostly exactly what was going on.

Now Angela's excellent code gave me the understanding of how the simple sites, especially using boltdns framework work, and I've since built my own GUI that utilizes all the underlying code to again make it simple for me to use. But I'm really reluctant to release it into the wild for others as I'm torn in that they should also make that learning journey like many of us have done

But I'm really reluctant to release it into the wild for others as I'm torn in that they should also make that learning journey like many of us have done.

Well the code I put up in the 'Doom' series two years ago has borne fruit with you. And very well done. And thanks for the feedback

But you are a minority; most users here appear reluctant to learn to code. Or even reluctant to follow instructions to download helper programs to get a complex suite of scripts to function. But that is fine; I think there should be a barrier to entry. Even though the barrier is erected by the user sabotaging themselves, assuming the task will be too difficult for them.

It is horrible indictment of the Education Systems across the World that people finish their education with a 'cannot do that / wont even try' mind set.
