get_iplayer Digest, Vol 31, Issue 11

[Chris J Brady]

OK - thank you.

I was using the Windows version. I pasted the Beeb URL into the Quick URL field, then clicked on Record.

It tried to download the tv version - but obviously couldn't find it.

But then it tried to download the radio version - but couldn't find that either.
