Save the patch and force a radio.cache refrech.
This is done by
get_iplayer --type=radio -f --force
get_iplayer --type=radio "Radio 1 Vintage" =>

If you went ahead and patched your script last week,
successive radio.cache refreshes will have got you a total of
56 "Radio 1 Vintage" entries.
However, if you decide(d) to patch the script anytime
during this week (starting Monday Oct 2nd),
forcing a radio.cache refresh will only populate it with
Monday's "Radio 1 Vintage" programmes; likewise,
if you delay patching until after the end of this week
(after Sunday Oct 8th), then you'll get 0 "R1V" entries
inside the radio.cache; this is because a default refresh
will only append to existing cache the new content of current week
(http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1vintage/programmes/schedules/this_week)
in the schedule feed.
If you've patched your GiP script after 01/10/2017,
you'll have to rebuild the radio.cache as far as
"Radio 1 Vintage" is concerned, by issuing in a
GiP command prompt:
get_iplayer --type=radio -f --refresh-include="Radio 1
Vintage" --refresh-limit-radio=30 --force
This will make sure you get all 56 R1V entries inside the cache!
Best regards,
Vangelis.
PS/OT: Here in Greece, the first day of the week
is Sunday, in Greek it's Κυριακή, translated in
English as the Day of our Lord (Jesus); Monday is
called Δευτέρα, litterally meaning "Second".
While dealing with this follow-up, I realised that
in the UK Monday is considered the first day of the week;
I did find the following small article
http://www.anythinglefthanded.co.uk/what-day-starts-the-week.html
quite interesting as to what is the standard
in various other countries :-)
