BBC shows will download but iTV shows keep failing in the latest Beta of MAC OS Monterey 12.3.

I know you probably do not worry about doing fixes for Betas but is this a known issue?

Thank you.

This is because Apple removed python 2.7 from macOS 12.3. Until I figure out how to bundle yt-dlp in a backwards-compatible fashion you'll have to install one yourself from python.org.

Okay thanks for the update. Good to know. For now I just went back to OS 12.2.

Scott,

Another couple of questions if I may.

Will Python work on an M1 Mac?

Do I have to do anything other than installing the python app if I decide to try this?

I upgraded to the beta again and installed python but still not working. What do I have to do with python once installed to get this to work? Thanks very much.

**Update - I found the version you created with python in it and it works for ITV shows. Using it on an Intel MacBook Pro. I might get brave up upgrade my Mac Mini M1 and try it there. (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/15-PmyvvmmPDxe8sAHIM-94U-9VJ0S-UW)

It does have the problem where it does not update the ITV shows though. Any chance you can fix this beta version for that problem? The first time I tried it - it asked to update and fixed that problem but then the ITV shows would not work again. Manual adding of shows from the web browser works fine.**

I was just wondering if you will be doing an update to include python once Monterey 12.3 is released?

Thanks.

That's my intention, yes. I have to figure out how to build one library so it will load on older versions of macOS.

Hi @skovatch - I've downloaded and installed the latest Python installed from Python.org, as you suggested, but ITV downloads still fail. I assume I'm missing some vital step, but I don't have a clue what that is. Would you be able to enlighten me? Thanks in advance.

@skovatch

You need a Python 2.x version, not Python 3 -- sorry, I should have clarified that.

Thanks for your reply. I just installed Python 2.7.18 but that didn't work either - ITV programs still fail to download. I'm using Get iPlayer Automator 1.22.1.

FYI,
GIA 1.22.1 under Monterey/Python 2.7.17 will DL from ITV but so VERY slowly I did not wait for it to complete.
Downie works like a charm and is much faster.
(BTW, did you create the symlink to python after installing?)

Update.

I have tried and am obviously doing something wrong. When I run that command in terminal I keep getting "no such file or directory". Do I have to change something?

Good day Scott.

Any update on your work to get a new version that will work with Monterey 12.3?

Thanks.

Sorry, I haven't had much time recently between starting a new job and a kitchen remodel getting underway. I hope to look at it again soon.

I agree. I was just curious and not trying to be pushy. We all appreciate the amazing work you do.

Good luck with the new job and the reno!

I appreciate the kind words! It's a fair question since I did say I would have an update by the time macOS 12.3 shipped, but it hasn't worked out that way. I need to build libssl v3 for x86_64 and arm64, and make it compatible with macOS 11. I have a working solution with yt-dlp and a self-contained python 3 but it's macOS 12-only right now. If everyone was on Monterey I would release what I have, but I know that's not the case.

@skovatch

I think I've figured out how to build libssl and libcrypto correctly, so please give the test version attached to #374 a try and let me know if it's working.

Thanks Scott!

Downloaded and tested on my Macbook Pro Intel with OS 12.3. Works great for both ITV and BBC and also caches the shows as it should.

On my Mac Mini M1, also OS 12.3, when I download the files I do not get the app icon when I open the zip folder - only the contents folder.

So I am not sure how to get it installed and working from that. But what I did was copy the app over from my Intel Macbook and then it works fine.

Is there some other step to get it installed on an M1 mac when you only see the contents folder?

Great work and thanks again.

HeyHeyWhatWhat.

How did you get it installed on your M1 Mac? See my comments above.

Thanks.

Hi pebceb. I downloaded from here and the use ready file was just put in my applications folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/15-PmyvvmmPDxe8sAHIM-94U-9VJ0S-UW

I tried with that same link before and it did what I posted above - just tried again from your posted link and it worked fine.

Sorry was on the wrong machine (intel). Still does the same thing on my M1 Mac Mini.

Here's the working version I have in my M1 Monterery 12.3 application folder that I downloaded from skovatch:

Thanks. Funny that the app icon does not show.

I am okay with mine as I moved a copy over form my Intel Mac. Maybe if I had just copied the folder over it would have worked?

Have a great day and thanks for answering.

This error makes me think that your intel laptop's networking changed in such a way that ITV is rejecting connections. Are you on a VPN? Can you try downloading an older version of GiA to see if you still see the problem there?

You might try asking your VPN provider if they can help, though if you can watch ITV shows in a browser window they may not be able to help. If that's the case, ask them to try installing yt-dlp or youtube-dl and see if that gives them some ideas.
