Re: BBC Radio Downloads
I was away from home when this item started, and probably should not comment since I opted out of Get_iPlayer when I switched to a mac about three years ago and failed miserably to get the programme running on it. Thankfully a kind soul pointed me to Get iPlayer Automator, and I have been using it ever since. my current version is 1.8.1 (1710) On Friday I ran the PVR as soon as I got home, and it collected all the items I was expecting. On Saturday, having read the email trail, I refreshed the cache and downloaded the two outstanding episodes of Rule Britannia, and this morning I have downloaded both Pipeline and Take the Floor. As far as I can tell nothing has changed except that I have lost the double brackets around flashvhigh and flashaudio in the downloaded titles. If Get iPlayer Automator can access the data surely the basic programme has a snag, not the BBC.

This ability has allowed me and my family to keep up with what is happening back home for the last few years and its now something that I consider invaluable to me when driving to work to be able to listen to downloads of my favourite BBC radio programmes. Unfortunately, I gather that this has now been made imposable by recent changes to the BBC I Player (thanks BBC, what about all the UK expats around the world!). I would be most grateful if you could somehow work around this problem and restore the ability to listen to downloads of the BBC while overseas.

I have used the web GUI PVR for years now and have found it wonderful. It fulfilled all my needs. As no one else better qualified than me i.e. almost anyone, has answered your problem. There have been many posts in the past few days about this with lots of scripts and examples but at its most simple try this. Open the CLI (command line interface - always make sure you have latest version) At the prompt get_iplayer --type=radio --pid=pid Get the pid value to insert by looking up the programme in the iPlayer Radio web page (it is the value beginning with a b). For a single programme it is as quick as the old PVR. There are suggested scripts for multiple pids and series so if this is what you want you will have to look through the posts of the past 3 or 4 days. I understand that dinkypumpkin is going to upload a patched version today (Sunday) which should overcome some of the limitations created by the BBC. One suggestion for TV is below. Modify it for radio and it should work. Regards Simon Morgan PS I thought people went to NZ to get away from Chris Evans !!!

I haven't yet managed to find a way that works. (I am using Windows 7 with Windows Installer 4.9.) Use the for command. Eg: for %F in (b04n8rx0, b04n9831, b04n69xt) do get_iplayer --mode=flashhigh --pid=%F Will download all three programmes, one after the other.

Re: BBC Radio Downloads
Hello There have been several patches suggested to get_iplayer-2.87. It is not clear which operating system you are using so I cannot be more helpful. I use Debian Linux and Mac OSX Snow Leopard/Mountain Lion/Mavericks/Yosemite. My get_iplayer computer is a Mac Mini using a 40in flat panel TV for monitor. All the radio programs are put into iTunes so I can listen to them no matter which room I happen to be in. I have airports and speakers in nearly every room. I use my iPad with a VNC app to control the Mac Mini.

RE: BBC Radio Downloads
Hello Terry, Thanks for the swift reply. It's really rather simple this end, Windows 7 on a pc. All I use Get_Iplayer for is downloading radio programmes (Chris Evans) to save on a USB memory stick and listen on the car radio! As kiwi radio is so damn awful, it's really refreshing to listen to some quality radio..even Chris Evans. Cheers, Tim -Original Message- From: Terry L.

Re: BBC Radio Downloads
Hello I will send you the patched get_player and use it. Just call it as get_iplayer-patched instead of get_iplayer or get_iplayer.pl . It should work. I like the Doctor Blake Mysteries and the Miss Fisher program.
