Box sets?

user-750

I see a number of Box Sets, such as Peaky Blinders, currently listed on iPlayer, but with get_iplayer I can only find a single episode.

Is it possible to do box sets?

Thanks

I do wonder if I haven't installed it correctly. For example, this episode of Click this live on iPlayer, but if I search for it's Pid, I get nothing back.

I'm not in the UK so can't try it but the command get_iplayer --pid b045fz8r --pid-recursive should download them all.

Agreed. Using:
Code:
get_iplayer --pid b08gmjqz
… is working fine here.

Thanks, guys. That does work from the command line. I usually just use the browser to interact, any ideas why specifying 'pid' as th search and then b045fz8r would come up blank?

user-911

b045fz8r is the PID for the series and not an individual episode.

This is why it will work with --pid-recursive as that finds the PIDs for each available episode.
