Git HEAD definitely fixes this. Just downloaded Marc Riley â Primitive Parts (b04v61pj) with no problems.
Just so you know, from the 1st January, WMA downloads will no longer be available.
Some of Radio 2 content - e.g. Radio 2 In Concert - was also failing with the same message but Git Head fix sorted that out. Thanks DP
Hi there,
I am now getting a similar error message for [national] R2 and R6 programmes:-

I've also tried in wma and the other versions. I've been downloading weekly without a problem up until this week - does anyone know if anything can be done or has the hammer finally come down?
thanks
Lots of fixes were introduced in version 2.91 so the first thing to do is upgrade to that. You are still using 2.90.
OK I'll try that thanks for your help
