I use the command to search.
The result is like below and full result is attached:
11104: BBC News - 23/02/2014, BBC World Service, News,Radio
11126: BBC News - 25/02/2014, BBC World Service, News,Radio
11147: BBC News - 26/02/2014, BBC World Service, News,Radio

So I only want to choose the programme on the 2014.02.26.
But the result is not my expectation.

result.txt

In your second command, you've specified two search expressions: and . Only the latter will be found in the field. In your first command with no options specified, the search was performed against the field (the default). A hint: If you search against two fields, e.g., , the search is performed against the space-concatenated values of both fields: .

I don't want to search one string in both two fields.
I want to search in field and search in field.
how can I achieve this in one command?

If above method could not be done in the get_iplayer command, how can I narrow done the result in the result.txt with your recommendation?
I have tried the below command but it is no effect.

Thank you user-2 very much!

You can't search two fields separately at the same time.

Re-read my earlier post. You're searching against a concatenation of two fields, so you should use one search expression, not two. If you're searching against two concatenated fields, what do you suppose you should do with your two search expressions? Another hint: is a regular expression (do some googling if you don't know what those are) that limits the entire matched value to just "BBC News". Since you're searching against a concatenation of and , that condition can never be met.
