The new channel was only introduced yesterday and I am wondering whether it is GIP or BBC that is stopping programmes from appearing in the search results - or is it me?

I updated to 3.20 but I am unable to download any programme from the new BBC Scotland channel.
Can somebody help please?

Try this: get_iplayer --refresh --refresh-include="BBC Scotland" --refresh-limit=30 This will index and cache all available BBC Scotland programmes. Ignore any 404 errors.

Just to say it certainly isn't a universal problem. I have the new channel in my 3.20 cache on Win 10

It boils down to this: If you updated your cache this week before upgrading to v3.20, get_iplayer won't by default go back and re-index last week's programmes, including Sunday's launch night programmes on BBC Scotland. That's what the command in my previous post does. New users won't notice, but this will be a potential issue for anyone upgrading to v3.20 or higher. It only matters if you are actually searching for BBC Scotland programmes, and there won't be very many of those compared to the national channels. Plus, you never need to be able to search for a programme to download it. The required corrective has been added to the release notes, so I'm closing this thread.
