Due to changes on metacafe web site, the application is not working as expected anymore. The author released a new version of metacafe_dl on 2007-09-13 and the port should be updated accordingly. Fix: update the port Patch attached with submission follows: How-To-Repeat: Find a video that you like on metacafe web site (assuming flash player > 7.* working :) ) and try to grab it with metacafe-dl $ metacafe-dl http://www.metacafe.com/watch/584842/install_freebsd_6_2_stable/ Retrieving disclaimer... done. Retrieving video webpage... done. Extracting fplayer URL parameters... done. Retrieving fplayer XML data... failed. Error: unable to download fplayer XML data. Try again several times. It may be a temporary problem. Other typical problems: * URL is wrong. * Content is not a flash video. * Video no longer exists. * The connection was cut suddenly for some reason. * metacafe changed their system, and the program no longer works. Try to confirm you are able to view the video using a web browser. When using a proxy, make sure http_proxy has http://host:port format. Try again several times and contact me if the problem persists.

Please commit the patches. Barbara contacted me directly letting me know of a new version, but I never found the time to create a PR with a patch. -F On Fri, 21 Sep 2007 00:30:14 UT, Edwin Groothuis <edwin@freebsd.org> wrote: > Maintainer of www/metacafe_dl, > > Please note that PR ports/116504 has just been submitted. > > If it contains a patch for an upgrade, an enhancement or a bug fix > you agree on, reply to this email stating that you approve the patch > and a committer will take care of it. > > The full text of the PR can be found at: > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/116504 > > -- > Edwin Groothuis > edwin@FreeBSD.org >
