Looked in my GiP download directory for News Quiz Extra (Series 20 episode 4 broadcast on 15 May) and it wasn't there.
My pvr-list item, which worked last week is as follows:-

pvrsearch = News_Quiz_Extra
        radiomode = better
        search0 = News_Quiz_Extra
        type = radio.

Found the pid and downloaded by pid and all went well as follows:-

alastair@ibmserver2:~> get_iplayer --pid p0530vlq --type=radio --radiomode=better

I note from the above however that the subject is referred to as a podcast.

Did my pvr download fail because I have type=radio rather than type=podcast?

If this is the case is this a change at the Beeb and should I edit my list item?

Grateful for advice please.
Budge
