Hi Terry, The BBC quite often change things meaning an up-to-date script is required. The -u option will update the script and plugins with later versions if they're available.

I still find its search sufficient, but one can always use the BBC's iPlayer web site to search and then use the resulting URL or PID with -g/--get, e.g. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b05vlwxj or b05vlwxj. > Running the following: > > ./get_iplayer 838 --get > > Began downloading the episode --subtitles can also be useful.
