It does seem to happen consistently with searching.
For instance, the way I generally use get_iplayer is to search for
programmes in a particular category and --pvrqueue the ones that look
interesting.
so a:
get_iplayer <number> -l
gives info about the programme, but then
get_iplayer <number> --pvrqueue
immediately following yields the "0 matching programmes" error.
...which I don't really understand.
Thanks
