I specify items via pid as per their listings in the daily shedules. R4
items then tend to come as the longer 'podcast' version in terms of
content. But having the pid shown on the BBC R4 schedules. However I don't
normally look at "!Zounds" so don't know about any items that are podcasts
which aren't broadcast.

I can understand that this might happen if the PIDs are the same, but 
it's not my experience.  '5 Live Science' is the first time I've come up 
against this.

You've failed to notice that the podcasts have different PIDs from the episodes 
previously downloaded, so they'll all download again.


I've use the --pid-recursive option with a series pid for multiple podcast 
series and the individual episodes certainly do not have different pids from 
those already downloaded. My scheduled GiP runs just download the latest 
episodes. If you are experiencing episodes being downloaded time and again the 
I would suggest you either have the --force option on somewhere or your 
download history is being cleared.


No, the podcast series have different pids from the corresponding main 
downloads, for example ...


Original series: b043wvt9

Podcast series: p02pc9ny

Most recent three episodes from original series flagged as unavailable:
5 Live Science - Buying Breast Milk Online, BBC Radio 5 live, m00161g8
5 Live Science - Science in Film, BBC Radio 5 live, m001682t
5 Live Science - Hot Cross Puns: Easter Science Q & A, BBC Radio 5 live, 
m0016jdn


Podcast editions which are available:
5 Live Science Podcast - Buying Breast Milk Online, BBC Radio 5 Live, 
p0bz4ztr

5 Live Science Podcast - Science in Film, BBC Radio 5 Live, p0c06v0k
5 Live Science Podcast - Hot Cross Puns: Easter Science Q & A, BBC Radio 
5 Live, p0c1g25k


... and unsurprisingly therefore using '--pid p02pc9ny --pid-recursive' 
they did indeed all download again, merely for me to delete them.

You can use --pid p02pc9ny --pid-recursive --hide --mark-downloaded to add to 
download history all previous podcast episodes not already downloaded. Use 
--pid p02pc9ny --pid-recursive --hide on subsequent runs to pick up new 
episodes.


Ah, thank you, I wasn't aware of the '--mark-downloaded' parameter, and 
did in the end download them all just to delete them.  At least I'll 
know for next time, thanks again.


I've also managed to adapt my calling program to allow parameters such 
as --pid in the lists of search terms, simply by not quoting any search 
term beginning with '--' before feeding it to GiP, so the one for 
low-def radio now has a line that reads '--pid p02pc9ny --pid-recursive' 
to pick up future podcast editions.


Normality now restored.
