Hi Clive,
In the past I would have typed:
get_iplayer --url="xxx" -recursive
Are you sure? With a single `-'?
This old get_iplayer, I haven't upgraded yet, has --pid-recursive.
Perhaps that does what you're thinking of; I've never used it.
get_iplayer --pid p06hcf2k, p06hcfgy, p06gdf2p, p06gddz0, p06gdd2d,
p06gdg0q, p06gdfvq, p06gdfmn, p06gdfqp, p06gdfh8, p06gdj6r, p06gdjb9,
p06dqrzv
...
I appear to have followed the syntax in the help screen
--pid <pid>,<pid>,...
Don't add spaces after the comma? It makes them separate words.
$ prargv get_iplayer --pid foo, bar, xyzzy
0 '/home/ralph/bin/prargv'
1 'get_iplayer'
2 '--pid'
3 'foo,'
4 'bar,'
5 'xyzzy'
$ prargv get_iplayer --pid foo,bar,xyzzy
0 '/home/ralph/bin/prargv'
1 'get_iplayer'
2 '--pid'
3 'foo,bar,xyzzy'
$
Hello Ralph and thank you for your reply.
First of all, removing the space between the individual pids has worked.
This is odd because in the past, when I use the five digit number to
download multiple programs I just leave a space between them, eg:
get_iplayer 12345 12346 12347 12348 12349 -g
Anyway, that is now solved so I will know what to do in future.
--recursive >> you are correct, there should have been two hyphens in
old GiP however, in this version, using one or two hyphens on the url
tells me: "Unknown option: recursive" and a search of the help page
fails to find the word 'recursive'.
Regards
Clive
