Ralph,
Have you used this recently? I remember using this some years ago, but then
started having problems, so I gave up. I just installed it again (it's in the
Ubuntu repository as 'get-iplayer') and this is what I got:
First a raw search:
terry@BEIGE:~$ get_iplayer

Apparently only one feed. I then tried recording:
terry@BEIGE:~$ get_iplayer --get 1
get_iplayer v2.86, Copyright (C) 2008-2010 Phil Lewis

ERROR: No PID for index Unknown (try using --type option ?)
According to the Wiki and the man page it's expecting the Index number from
the search. I only get one and it doesn't work, so what am I doing wrong? I
tried the search using --type, but I only get the same answer.
