I have a batch file which I trigger every 8 hours using the Windows Task Scheduler. Here's a sample of the batch file: @echo off CD /d "C:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer\" set _perl="C:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer\perl.exe" set _get_iplayer="C:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer\get_iplayer.pl" %_perl% %_get_iplayer% --refresh --force dontshowanymatches %_perl% %_get_iplayer% -g programme "another programme" programme3 %_perl% %_get_iplayer% --type=radio --refresh --force dontshowanymatches %_perl% %_get_iplayer% --type=radio -g radioprogramme "another radio programme" radioprogramme3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Shevek, thanks for this. My objective was to use get_iplayer on my WHS2011 box without leaving any user logged in for security reasons. Because of my profound ignorance of matters "Server", I am concerned that some neer-do-well would hack my server and it ends up spamming the whole world. However others have suggested running a batch file such as you suggest so I will give this a try.
