If you want to keep the SD files but also have HD files, why not simply specify that you want the HD files to be stored in a different folder to the SD files? See my comments below regarding your comment "Also it will keep downloading files each time they are made available". > I thought of deleting all the TOTP lines in download_history as that > at least would prevent them from being downloaded again subsequently, > but I don't know if this is an easy thing to do (can't see if my text > editor can do this (Notepad++). Haven't you got that round the wrong way? The download_history file contains PIDs of the files you've downloaded so if you delete those PIDs then it wouldn't prevent them from being downloaded again, it would in fact force them to be downloaded again if you specify the PID of the TOTP programme or the name as your search term. The download_history file is a simple text file and can easily be edited in Notepad++. Just be aware that the lines of text for each pid are long. > Is there a better, more efficient method of doing this? -- __ __| |_ __ __ .------------------------------------------------. / _/ _` \ V V / | mailto:cdw_pcm...@the-walker-household.co.uk | \__\__,_|\_/\_/ |________________________________________________| _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
