The BBC has some superb radio and TV programmes, some of which they
have released into the public domain and which can be downloaded using
‘get-iplayer’, and then can be played with your choice of viewer. This
script will -

	* Check to see if you have 'get-iplayer/get_iplayer' installed.
	  If not it will prompt you to install it.
	* Creates the directory where the 'beeb-tv.txt &
	  beeb-radio.txt' files are stored.
	* Downloads the current radio programme feed,
	* Allows you to put the programme numbers in to download, and
	  tell you how much more you can download in this session,
	* Downloads the programmes,
	* Then downloads the current TV programme feed,
	* Allows you to put the programme numbers in to download, and
	  tell you how much more you can download in this session,
	* Downloads the programmes,
	* Asks you if you want to create a playing list of the radio
	  programmes that can then be used by MPD.

You can get 'beeb' from either my blog 'A taste of linux' or from my
bitbucket - https://bitbucket.org/boudiccas/dots

Any problems, or further instruction required, please let me know.

Thanks
Sharon.
My distro does not include iplayer. Will "beeb" tv play on a
common Linux player, like VLC?
