radio download problems

user-277

Hi there,

I wonder if anyone can help with me out. I have successfully downloaded all of the smiley radio series except one episode. "tinker, tailor, soldier, spy" part 2. Whenever I try to Get-iplayer advises me that I have already downloaded this particular episode. The problem was that the first time I tried to download this episode my computer crashed (not related to Get-iplayer) and I only had a partial download which would not work. When I looked on the forums it reccommnended deleting failed download and starting again. This is what I have down but for whatever reason Get-iplayer still believes this file was already successfully downlaoded.

I'm such there is a simple explanation and solution but I just can't seem to find it so apologies in advance

The programme is still in your download history, so you need to delete the partial download and add
Code:
--force
to your command line to override the entry in download history. See:
