ERROR: Failed to get version pid metadata from iplayer site I don't understand the warning about XML::Simple perl module either, as it's installed on my system. I downloaded get_iplayer and made it executable. I also deleted the .get_iplayer subdirectory before running it to be sure everything was downloaded (plugins etc.) afresh. Any ideas? ...John Reay _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
