On BBC their adverts they run alongside BBC news are shockingly bad. At this point, I want to share media with friends that I found good on BBC iplayer. Not charge or distribute "en masse". Is that legal? A dir with a robots.txt disallow for example. They should switch to HTML5 video. I guess one reason they might not be doing this, as it makes the API to download the media far easier than the opaque Flash API at present. Btw I managed to compress, with same quality AFAICT 338M The_Genius_of_Josiah_Wedgwood_-_-_b01s0zn8_default.mp4 to 169M The_Genius_of_Josiah_Wedgwood_-_-_b01s0zn8_default.webm. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
