It's a bit of a pig, isn't it! I have used the web GUI PVR for years now and have found it wonderful. It fulfilled all my needs. As no one else better qualified than me i.e. almost anyone, has answered your problem. There have been many posts in the past few days about this with lots of scripts and examples but at its most simple try this. Open the CLI (command line interface - always make sure you have latest version) At the prompt >get_iplayer --type=radio --pid=<pid> Get the pid value to insert by looking up the programme in the iPlayer Radio web page (it is the value beginning with a "b"). For a single programme it is as quick as the old PVR. There are suggested scripts for multiple pids and series so if this is what you want you will have to look through the posts of the past 3 or 4 days. I understand that dinkypumpkin is going to upload a patched version today (Sunday) which should overcome some of the limitations created by the BBC. One suggestion for TV is below. Modify it for radio and it should work. Regards Simon Morgan PS I thought people went to NZ to get away from Chris Evans !!!
