BBC listing + search no longer working

user-545

Since yesterday (July 19) just found that I no longer get BBC programs list (plus "get_iplayer --f" no longer refreshes and displays list).

If I use search by part or whole title, the program number/name is no longer returned. Started using pid or url to download.

Are you aware of this and can it be fixed? I do know that BBC sites were down for hours (18/19 July?) - have they changed something?

Thanks for any help...

You've answered your own question there. The BBC is having technical issues and the iPlayer site has been up and down for two days. Latest:

Hi,

I have a similar problem, I search for a program but I get no search results.

I've just had a look at the BBC website & most of the programs I'm looking for aren't currently available on iPlayer & they usually are.

There still appears to be a problem with the BBC website as there is still the "technical problems" message on the home page.
