When recording recent BBC R3 programmes I'm suddenly getting:-
Code:
rt DNS/web proxy has been blocked
for most prgrammes.
Can't see anything on this when I searched this website so hopefully it's just me!
Any ideas would be appreciated, I use get_iplayer a lot so hopefully a solution is available.

Please refer to the forum rules. In particular, rule 5:

Do not ask for help using get_iplayer with a VPN, VPS, Smart DNS or proxy, even if you are in the UK.

Sorry, didn't realise I was asking for help using get_iplayer with a VPN, VPS, Smart DNS or proxy,
I just wondered why get_iplayer wasn't working

The answer was in the error you reported in your first post.

DNS/web proxy has been blocked.

The BBC blocks people it suspects are trying to access iPlayer from outside the UK.
