Hi Keith,
Sincere thanks. I now have the program installed and am running your line re
"The man from the Ministry" to see what happens. 
Is there any indication of download progress? And I noticed that over 1000
titles were downloaded into the program. I am particularly interested in
science programs like horizon. How do I pick out this from the list?

Kind regards. 
Aedan.

Hi Aedan,

I'll do my best to help you.

1, Please go to the link:

http://linuxcentre.net/getiplayer/installation#windows

2, find a Heading Level 3:
Windows installer
Download the latest Windows installer from Link, her, and press Enter.

3, look for a link:
http://www.infradead.org/get_iplayer_win/get_iplayer_setup_latest.exe
and press Enter on this.

4, You will be asked to either run or save the file, so press alt+s, to save
it, and the file will be downloaded.

I hope this helps.

With very best wishes,

Keith

Hi Pele,

I have been using get_iplayer for some while now, and I'm very pleased that
the latest version now allows me to use the programme in much the same way
that I did before last week.

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.

With best wishes,

Keith

Hi Everyone

I have to confess that I have not followed the discussion on Get_Iplayer as I
have never used it. 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.

All help welcome

Pele West
