I am having issues with this too. I have tried get_iplayer --pid p00syxbw for the bit I am after, but it's not working. I normally use the GUI and not console so this is a little harder for me to understand. It's not working for me but they only ran past a few hours ago - will I need to wait?

I have ended up with the whole of 6 hours worth squished in to a 2gb file, is there anything I can do to get a higher quality version? It's worse than YouTube 240p. Do I need to wait for a HD copy or is this the best there is and nothing else is likely to happen to improve it now? Dennis Smith
