Hi Ben,
Yes, thanks, the command line you suggested works for me too, with the 
addition of --type=radio of course.

My problem is with pvr and how previous search item, which used to work, 
does so no longer.  It seems like the "episode" function is the problem 
but I would like to know why.  Any ideas
Alastair.
