Hello Vangelis Thanks for your helpful response.
This was a clean install in fact a new Microsoft Surface Pro supplied with it already installed (updates run as well). I use google chrome same as on my windows 7 machine. I will spend some time with the possible solutions from squarepenguin tomorrow (out all day today on business - just leaving London to drive 3 hours home now!) but I can tell you I had tried the CLI method already - no good. I do believe it is possibly something to do with an internet protection filtering system installed on the machine but I had the same one on the old machine (same version - it regularly updates) so it is a bit odd. In answer to the question " Does http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03kky9f.xml load OK in the browser used for the WebPVR? The answer is no as the BBC site is blocked (apart from news) by the web filter but that was also the case on my old laptop and it all worked fine there. The working get_iplayer was particularly useful because the filter blocked direct access or use of bbc's own iplayer. I will try the permissions checks in the morning. What parsing and perls are is a bit beyond me at the moment although I get the drift. How that could be cured? Thanks again.

GiP "should" run OK in Win10, but some known "errors" have been posted in the support forum: https://squarepenguin.co.uk/forums/search.php?action=results&sid=4d77ba6e7e4 0d0572faca4c385c0cf0f&sortby=&order=desc ... as far as I could tell none matches yours...

Have you tried to download via CLI? get-iplayer --pid=p03kky9f --modes=best > it comes up with a parser error. This is obviously perl related - a module responsible for the parsing fails. It could be a permissions issue - try https://squarepenguin.co.uk/forums/thread-662-post-3654.html#pid3654 Do you run GiP from the same user account it was installed with and does this belong to the Admins Group? As dinky hinted, some protection software may inhibit one or more DLLs needed for that failing perl module... > as my old machine has to be turned in on Friday! As said, my questions/suggestions are mainly food-for-thought. You are obviously in a hurry, so I'd urge you to subscribe and seek further assistance in the forum: https://squarepenguin.co.uk/forums/forum-6.html Dinky (the code maintainer) posts there uniquely, if you are lucky, he could figure out a solution for you in time...
