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

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

The PID for downloading the AAC/M4A file is b08qgx61. I downloaded it using --radiomode=hlsaacstd at 40Mbit/s.

p0530vlq is the PID for the podcast. I think I saw in one of the get_iplayer release notes that podcasts were no longer supported. You can download it at
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b010m2mj/episodes/downloads
It gives you a choice of 128kbit/s and 64kbit/s.

Hi Richard,
Many thanks.
I usually get the pid by finding the programme using beeb website and that is what I did last night, which gave me the podcast pid which I used without further thought or examination. I did notice however that the "More Episodes" offering on the website last night was "confused," offering the incorrect series and episode numbers and other errors.

Today all is well and the website is as usual. The wanted pid comes up and I have downloaded it using --radiomode=better. All OK except that file sixe is slightly smaller than last night's effort (39.8 MiB vs 40.1 MiB). Both used dafstd1 so no idea why different unless beeb use different edit of master.

All this explains my getting the podcast not original last night but not why the pvr didn't work.
More work required by me I fear.
Thanks again.
