Re: GiP 3.00 on Windows XP?
Hi I have tried it and I agree that it doesn't take too long, but I was under the impression that the method that is now used to create the cache is not ideal and just thought that the option to only update the cache for certain programs might improve things.

Re: GiP 3.00 on Windows XP?
Hi I have just re-read the cache refresh section in the release notes, and that obviously explains my problem, I am not sure exactly how gip updates its cache, but I do not need a complete list of everything available on iplayer every day, I wonder if there is a possible way to just update the cache for named programs for example a command something like --refresh=(eggheads,pointless) this would certainly speed up the cache refresh and possibly not put so much load on the BBC if that is an issue.

Re: GiP 3.00 on Windows XP?
Hi I am using GIP 3.00 on XP but I had to retain my old copy of ffmpeg.exe as the new one doesn't support XP, So far this appears to work for me, but cannot guarantee if it will work for you it might depend on what modes you record at, I am not sure. It looks like it may be time to upgrade soon, The only problem I have noticed so far, I usually record all my stuff overnight using the GIP command line from a batch file run from XP's scheduler , but for some reason GIP didn't update the cache of programs, therefore nothing new got downloaded, running get_iplayer --refresh beforehand seemed to do the trick.

GiP 3.00 on Windows XP?
Just been away for a week and come back to find issues with metadata, GiP 3.00, etc. Can I use GiP on Windows XP? All I use is recording by PID. Thanks, Chris ___ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
