I believe that only programmes that are broadcast through the "regular" channels appear in the GiP cache. To pick up others such as these and "box sets" you should use the series pid and the recursive option. HTH Don - Original Message - From: Andrew To: Cc: Sent: 25/04/2021

I think that you've missed out the "--" in front of pid (it looks like you've got a single -) get-iplayer --pid=p099f5jp --modes=hvfxsd1 tvmode good --type=tv What's weird is that you don't get an error but you get the info on 2 completely unrelated programmes! -Original Message-

That said, in answer to the original question, no there is no way of get_iplayer recording that buffer. ISTR in a much earlier version it could record the live stream (though I am prepared to be corrected if that was some other similar utility) but that the facility was removed, possibly when it

Thank you for getting back to me. 360 and 361 I was referring to. If I run it on my Windows 7 laptop 360 only saves just over an hour even though it sas it has grabbed all of the file (in that case 3 hrs 50 mins). So for some reason it will not get the whole file. This I find very strange.
