Now then. Please try the below line

get_iplayer --type=radio --get "Sam Cook" --modes=wma --aactomp3 --mp3vbr=0
By my reckoning, this is the way to go because of some issues with this program. If I’m not mistaken GIplayer will convert the program to MP3 formats once downloaded. It will take longer time to download this program so be patient. 

Hope this works.

Good afternoon Amro,

I would prefer the MP3 version if at all possible, please.

The line I am using is as follows:
get_iplayer --type=radio --get "The Shooting of Sam Cooke" --aactomp3 --mp3vbr=0
I have tried leaving off the first word, and also tried simply using Sam Cooke, but have failed on all occasions. 

Any help you can offer would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

With very best wishes,

Keith

Morning Keith

I think I see now what the problem is.
Please email me the command line you usually use to download programs and I’ll have a go at tweaking it to get this program. Alternatively, if you’re alright with downloading this program in WMA formats then the command line is 

get_iplayer --pid b04tcmv1 --modes=wma

Give G_Iplayer time to record if you’re using the above line.
If you want to try and find this program yourself then the name I typed in to search for it was “sam cook”. 

get_iplayer “sam cook”

HTH,
Amro

Good morning Amro,
I'm afraid to say the line you provided failed to get the programme. And my original line also failed again this morning. 

If anyone has success, please let me know.

Thank you.

With best wishes,

Keith

Then the command line to download using PID will be

get_iplayer --pid b04tcmv1

HTH,

Hello Keith and all,

I use Guide and the listen again feature lists the programme title as:

"
The shooting of Sam Cooke - Dotun Adebayo investigates the circumstances in which Sam Cooke was shot dead in 1964. 
"
However, that is not completely accurate. Guide seems to insist the word, which, is not perfect, my best guess is there is a stray character somehow incorporated, and Guide resorts to spelling the word out. Probably nothing important. 

Here is the page for the episode on the BBC site:

www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b04tcmv1
Instead, here is a link which plays the episode immediately with the BBC pop-out player using Hal, not precisely what you want, but maybe acceptable if your method will not work?

Hello all,
I'm sorry to have to say that I am having difficulties downloading the second programme about Sam Cooke, which was broadcast on R2 last night at 10:00. 



The programme title was "The shooting of Sam cook".
No matter how I input this title into get_iplayer, it will not get the programme for me.
Could I please ask if anyone has had success, could they either send me a link to Dropbox, Send Space, or whatever?
It's most annoying, because I have absolutely no problems with 4 Extra programmes. 



Many thanks.



Best wishes,



Keith
