get_iplayer forums

since v3.06 my cache isn't being updated. No errors, just "0 programmes found".

I notice there's a MacOS report of this too, so am reporting as a more general issue ?

Post the output from these commands:

Code:
get_iplayer -V

perl -MIO::Socket::SSL -e 'print "$IO::Socket::SSL::VERSION\n";'

perl -MMojolicious -e 'print "$Mojolicious::VERSION\n";'

I've done the same, and got the same output.

and then (snipped for brevity, but it's a list of programmes ending:

I first noticed a problem when I was trying to run the PVR for the second episode of "Gunpowder".

Hope it's not breaking any forum rules, but I have posted updates in the macOS thread

/threa...ml#pid6917

as it seems to be the same issue ?????

Stop doing that. If you're using Debian, stay in this lane.

EDIT: I'll merge threads if warranted when I know what is going on.

OK, wrist slapped !

and

Code:
@DebServer64:~$ perl -MIO::Socket::SSL -e 'print "$IO::Socket::SSL::VERSION\n";'

2.044

@DebServer64:~$ perl -MMojolicious -e 'print "$Mojolicious::VERSION\n";'

7.21

I can't reproduce this behaviour. Temporarily rename your tv.cache file (see FAQ list for location) so that get_iplayer will repopulate it. Then, post the output from:

Code:
get_iplayer --refresh --search=bogus

followed by:

Code:
get_iplayer --list=channel

Hang on ...

has the output changed between v3.01 and v3.06 ????

I have just run "Refresh Cache" from the WebPVR and got a message "102 programmes" added.

Previously there was an actual list of them (and it was the lack of this list which caused me to post) !

However, we are not out of the woods yet :) as now I get an error trying to run the PVR (new thread) ...

That's interesting ... the error I was getting last night has gone.

Are the BBC ****ing around their end ?????

I have "Gunpowder" in my series list for the PVR, and E1 recorded fine.

However, now E2 isn't being picked up when I run the PVR, and doesn't appear in search ?

UPDATE: deleted cache, refreshed, and seems OK ...

(31-10-2017, 09:21 AM)has the output changed between v3.01 and v3.06 ????

They don't call them release notes for nothing,

Also: You may wish to run get_iplayer --cache-rebuild to restore older listings not picked up by --refresh.

Thanks for that. Not sure how you upvote or like, but here's a +1 from me.
