Fantastic - just installed using your repository/application working v well thanks v much!

If only this had a GUI or actually maybe a microb plugin would be even better.. hmm

Having downloaded the video fine it seems to have downloaded the older version of the video file - its quite interesting actually, its not the same version as on the main bbc iplayer site - where does it come from? The version it downloaded had a bit of bbc news 24 tacked on before the programme whilst the iplayer website didnt. (Im not criticising, Im just interested)
