Ipod Video Firmware Download Broken?

[rtjm3734]

I just attempted to download and extract the .zip archive from current builds for the Ipod 5gen 30g video, and got a broken archive message in both winrar and winzip.  I tried each of the archived files as well, and got the same message.  I looked pretty exhaustively through the forums, and didn't see that anyone had posted anything in either the announcements forum or in general, so thought I'd post something to see if anyone else is having the problem, or whether I may have overlooked something....any help, etc. is appreciated.

Yeah, it "works for me", I'm sorry to say. Are you sure your downloads are completing properly?

[rtjm3734]

Yeah, they seem to be completing just fine, but are corrupt when I go to extract them....what software are you using to unzip?  I can download other firmware and extract just fine. Archos, etc. works fine, just not the ipod video builds....what is the link url you are using?

-Thanks.

I'm using the link in the table at the Current Build page, and I tested with the built-in windows unzip, and 7-zip.

Are you sure that you aren't having cache issues of some sort, with a proxy somewhere providing the same bad file repeatedly?

[rtjm3734]

could very well be the case.  I'll certainly look at that, as I'm running squid/ipcop.  Makes sense, I'll post back here.  Thanks again!

Yep.  That was it.  My ipcop distro seems to be having some pretty major squid trouble.  Turned the proxy off, and no problem.  Thank you very much for your insight!
