Hi there,

I've used get iplayer for years now and love it, but I'm struggling to download http://www.bbc.co.uk/events/e84mxj/acts/aqx84f#p02v3jmq despite having looked at the guides etc.

It is possible? If so, how!?!

Thanks in advance,

Josef.

Hi

Doesn't seem to be working. I'm want to download and keep most of glasto, and if I search glastonbury with the pvr manager there is only 1 hightlight program. I also tried finding the pid, which for a band called hotchip (http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p02...5-hot-chip) should be 'p02txpw9' (input as 'get_iplayer p02txpw9')? and said 0 matching programs.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm new to get_iplayer.

You need to tell get_iplayer that that is a PID you are using rather than a search term. You can't search by PID so it won't find any matches.

Try this to download that programme:

Have a read of the TV Download Guide which will tell you all about downloading using the command line version and will have you getting the programmes you want in no time.
