Not quite. See below.
What I got was some radio shows, some TV shows *and* some subtitle
files...but of zero size and without file extensions. Presumably these
are unavailable shows which still have metadata. Is this a bug in GiP,
or is the BBC just having problems at coincidentally the same time as
I'm trying this?
For some searches I was using --force, if that helps.
--skipdeleted has a fairly specialised function. From the man page:
--skipdeleted
Skip the download of metadata/thumbs/subs if the media file no longer
exists. Use with --history & --metadataonly/subsonly/thumbonly.
Without seeing your commands and output I can only guess, but it sounds
like you were trying to use --skipdeleted with a normal search and
download. In that case, --skipdeleted shouldn't have any effect, but
again, without seeing your commands and output it's impossible to say
what happened.
