Further to this, first please forgive the top post and typing error. 
Should be "many hours" but the thought is right.

Having resurrected my old .get_iplayer directory, upgraded to v3.29 and 
read the crucial notes I thought I would spend some time editing my 
prefs which, from several years ago are:-

alastair at HP-Z640-1:~> get_iplayer --prefs-show
Options in '/home/alastair/.get_iplayer/options'
        output = /home/alastair/GiP_Recordings
        nopurge = 1
        ffmpeg = /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg
        tvmode = best
        refreshinclude = Radio 3,Radio 4
        refreshexclude = CBBC,CBeebies
        refreshexcludegroups = local
        type = tv,radio
alastair at HP-Z640-1:~>

 From the above it seems the most important change to make will be to 
tvmode = best which I now wish to change and use the changed options.

Before making this change I tried to delete old setting as in:-
get_iplayer --pref-del tvmode = best.

This didn't work and when I tried

get_iplayer --prefs-add --quality=hd,sd,high,std

I received the following result:-

alastair at HP-Z640-1:~> get_iplayer --prefs-add --quality=hd,sd,high,std.

WARNING: Invalid values in --quality/--modes: 'std.'. This will be a 
fatal error in a future release.

INFO: Added option 'modes' = 'hd,sd,high,std.'

INFO: Options file /home/alastair/.get_iplayer/options updated

alastair at HP-Z640-1:~> get_iplayer --prefs-show

Options in '/home/alastair/.get_iplayer/options'

         ffmpeg = /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg

         nopurge = 1

         type = tv,radio

         output = /home/alastair/GiP_Recordings

         refreshinclude = Radio 3,Radio 4

         modes = hd,sd,high,std.

         refreshexcludegroups = local

         tvmode = best

         refreshexclude = CBBC,CBeebies

Please could I have some help with this please.
