The question is what does this message mean "Permission denied at
/usr/bin/get_iplayer line 3939"
Remember case-sensitivity: You specified your output directory as
/media/sf_iplayer_recordings, which is different from your mount point
of /media/sf_iPlayer_Recordings. get_iplayer thinks you're trying to
create a new directory in /media, which requires root permissions, thus
the error message since you're not running as root.
