Hi Amro, Yes, I am appointing you the official custodian of get_iplayer. I'm afraid I haven't yet got around to designing a medal *smile*. I wouldn't care, but I've only just joined the list, and have already said I'm a bit of a novice where many computer programs are concerned, but people are coming to me for help with i_player, when they should, of course, be coming to you *huge smile*. Oh well, so long as things get sorted.

So am I now officially the custodian of get_iplayer?!! *smiles* Thanks for explaining the command --mp3vbr=0, I may start use it. If I have the time to go hunt the manual for other commands I’ll let you guys know. Best, Amro -----Original Message----- From: Keith Sent: Saturday, November 08, 2014 11:35 AM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Get_Iplayer Commands Good morning Henry, I'll do my best. I was introduced to get_iplayer by my best friend, Gordon Atkinson. Gordon was a member of this list, but, very sadly, he died last December. It was Gordon who gave me many of the commands in get_iplayer. As far as I understand things, the command --mp3vbr=0, tells get_iplayer to download a programme in the highest bit rate. I'm sure that Amro will put me right if this is not so.

Others may tell you there is a much better way of doing things, but this is how I use get_iplayer. I have get_iplayer on my desktop. I have a plain text file in which I store various lines of commands. Each line is more or less the same, except for the name of the programme I wish to download. An example of a line I have, which goes to get The Men from the Ministry, is as follows: get_iplayer --type=radio --get "The Men from the Ministry" --aactomp3 --mp3vbr=0 This is how I use that line: 1. Highlight the line, and copy it to the clipboard. 2. Open get_iplayer. 3. Press Alt+space, which brings up a menu. 4. Cursor down to "Edit", which has a sub-menu. 5. Right Cursor. 6. Cursor down to "Paste". 7. Press Enter twice. Get_iplayer will then go to get The Men From The Ministry, and chatter away for some time. When it is downloaded, it is stored in a folder called i_player recordings. Finally, to get out of i_player, you have to make sure you are at the Greater Than sign, and then type exit. As I said, there are probably other ways of doing things, but that's how I use get_iplayer. Good luck. With best wishes, and many thanks for the weekly Radio 4 Extra listings.

But I have now downloaded the latest version to try. How does one run the commands? I can find a list of commands but I am not sure where to put them? I tried running Get_Iplayer from the Run dialog box, but got the message Windows cannot find Get_Iplayer.
