Hi Deddajay

 

Please could you advise which is the best solution for someone using Jaws
V11, either use the command line within get_iplayer or the search link
within web pvr manager?  When I run get_iplayer I'm not sure where jaws is
focosed.

 

best wishes

 

Henry

Hi Colin

I just typed "johnnie Walker" and "three act tragedy". Today's Sounds of the
70's downloaded no problem, and all 5 episodes of Poirot downloaded. The
first episode of the Poirot series doesn't have Poirot in the title so it
wouldn't have been found if I'd used it.

I've been playing with this all day today, working out various combinations
of commands. I've found that once an episode has downloaded it won't
download again unless you add the command --force. It's no where near as
convenient as Radio Downloader but at least it works. I've set up a word doc
with various combinations of commands so that I can just paste and copy into
Get-iplayer, having made any adjustments needed first.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
Deddajay

Greetings,
 
You advise us to type:
 
get_iplayer --type=radio --get "name of program"
 
what format is the program name?
 
Let us say I want to get hold of Sounds of the Seventies from Radio 2 for
Sunday 2013 06 30, what exactly would I enter in the field where the program
being desired is placed?  How intelligent is the program?  I assume also it
will get the latest of any program so, for instance, if I want a program in
five episodes such as one of the series on R4E such as in the crime and
thrillers, how accurate do I have to be?  I may wish to obtain part 3
broadcast last Wednesday but now, it is Monday morning.
 
A case in point is "Poirot 3 Act Tragedy" which was as shown on the R4E
website, if I simply put as above, what, if anything is given? Obviously,
the details then go on to say "Episode 3" and on the next line on the
website it gives the strapline associated with part 3.
 
Also, the program is first on Wednesday at 6:00, then 13:00, then 20:00 and
finally Thursday at 01:00.
