Hi all, I'm trying to stream a prog from radio 4 (because the iPlayer sucks CPU on my ageing laptop, causing all kinds of problems). Here is my invocation:
./get_iplayer --stream --type=radio --pid=b015p8c0 | mplayer -cache 128 - and here is what I get: get_iplayer v2.80, Copyright (C) 2008-2010 Phil Lewis This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details use --warranty.
