As I recall this usually happens when you've recently updated &/or run get_iplayer as root, and the cache has dodgy permissions. Your private files - program index, list of shows that have been downloaded in the past, options and saved searches - are stored in the "~/.get_iplayer" directory. Check permissions of that. If it doesn't exist, check and see if "~root/.get_iplayer" exists - if so, copy (`cp -r`) it to your home and then check permissions (`ls -lR` or `find ~/.get_iplayer -exec chown …`) before running get_iplayer again. aB. _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
