... Sorry to hear that, Don :-(

My OS is WinVista SP2 Home Premium 32bit, 
I have GiP 2.94 installed and prior to posting, I 
did try all the commands I advised you to use; 
they all worked as expected!

In one of your previous posts you said: 

> The command line works fine.

so that means you did manage to record 
some of the already broadcast radio shows 
belonging to brandPID=p03lsql7 by issuing
 
get_iplayer --type=radio --pid=p03lsql7 --pid-recursive

in the CLI (???).

Can you post the console output when 
running the pvr job, so that we can see 
what's possibly wrong? 
In the CLI run:

get_iplayer --pvr-single="ONCE_BBC_Radio_2_50s" > PVR_log.txt 2&>1

"PVR_log.txt" should be created inside GiP's installation folder, 
i.e. C:\Program Files\get_iplayer (for 32bit OS). 
If small, attach to an e-mail, else post it on a 
pastebin-type site and then share the link here.

If --pid-recursive works in the CLI, then it should also 
work in the PVR (CLI or GUI) - remember, the GUI 
is just a frontend for the CLI...

If you have already fetched shows manually 
via the CLI, running that PVR job should be able to 
detect and download (more recent) radio shows 
not already present inside your history file 
(Brand and/or Series PID demand the XML::Simple 
perl module, but that is already installed by 
the Windows installer; plus, it should be there and 
working fine if "--pid=p03lsql7 --pid-recursive" 
works in the CLI)...

I honestly hope you get this sorted!

Best regards.
