I guess I'll just see if it stays stable before expending a lot of effort. Thanks for the information. BTW, I do have end-to-end almost idiot-proof instructions I used to set up get_iplayer on Raspberry Pi. I'd be glad to share them in others were interested. Apart from the recent choking downloads it's working well - it stores everything on my NAS and the Pi does the downloading and the PVR. _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
