How do I start get_iplayer

user-1060

I'm using Win 10 and have downloaded get_player but I can't see an .exe file to start the program.  Help please.

Read the Windows installer instructions in the wiki. They tell you how to start get_iplayer after installation. There is no .exe file.

get_iplayer Output:

On windows (10) 64 bit it will generally install itself
c:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer
or
32 bit
c:\Program Files\get_iplayer

The main script is
c:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer>get_iplayer.cmd

If you knew that today's shipping forecast was on

you'd enter the command
c:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer>get_iplayer.cmd --type=radio --pid=b06r0dgr

Best read the wiki for how to change the output format, use the PVR and many other features.
