get iplayer not downloading

user-1170

Hi, today I reinstalled get iplayer after doing a clean install and upgrading however it isn't working, it finds the program but then fails to download it, log is below.

have tried with various programs, both PID's and URL's
Any ideas?

Not a get_iplayer issue, but rather a problem on your system.  From your post:

get_iplayer Output:

Failed to open file! E:\Media\iplayer input\Silent_Witness_Series_19_-_3a._Life_
Licence_Part_1_b06ykmc0_default.partial.mp4.flv
That should be a big flashing warning sign that something is wrong with your output location: disk full, not mounted, wrong permissions, etc. get_iplayer can't know what the problem is, so you'll have to investigate.

Fixed it!
Just as you said it was a permissions issue, probably got messed up during the upgrade.
Fixed it by giving the 'Everyone' group write permission for my output folder.
Thanks
