Cool, thanks for that. I'll have a play, I did create a wrapper but it
needs the -a switch first. Not ideal, so perhaps using presets might
be better for me.

FWIW, saved as ~/bin/gip:

#!/bin/bash
case "$1" in
	"-a" )
		shift
		get_iplayer --modes=flashstd $*
		;;
	* )
		get_iplayer $*
		;;
esac


Cheers
Nick
