Hello David, hope all's well with you... Yes, the undisputed fact is that the PID string is (forever) uniquely tied to a BBC programme, be it TV, Radio or (more recently) podcast. >>>>>>> Snip IUnless there's a glitch. I one posted about b0080rwc being the pid for two different programmes, but no-one replied. "get_iplayer --get --type=radio --pid b0080rwc "INFO: Sherlock Holmes - The Adventure of the Veiled Lodger - Sherlock Holmes - The Adventure of the Veiled Lodger (b0080rwc) Already in history (/home/administrator/.get_iplayer/download_history) - use --force to override" i.e., a different, but related, programme. Added the --force and get "INFO: Trying flashaacstd1 mode to record radio: Sherlock Holmes - In Search of Professor Moriarty" veiled lodger is now on the BBC under a different PID, but MR Google does have some references showing the original.
