Updated for willemw's suggestions (except the category, as I think multimedia is more appropriate as long as only one category is possible).

Lines 'conflicts=' and 'provides=' should be removed. (Notes: Category 'network' maybe more appropriate. Added get_iplayer.cgi to the get_iplayer-git package.)

The new version (2.90) works fine. Make these changes to PKGBUILD: pkgver=2.90 md5sums=('dda5ee63127c91f460fc776176da0b38')

I am using an older pkg my $version = 2.85; and the search issue occurs here too, so i guess it's changes made by the BBC thats causing the 'returning only one search result ' issue. Agreed it does sadly hamper the functionality somewhat.

It seems get_iplayer is not working fully from today. It gives only one result in the feeds. PID download still works, but it makes it way less useable. More info: https://squarepenguin.co.uk/forums/topic/get_iplayer-search-and-pvr-functions-no-longer-work-no-fix-available/ Cheers,

This needs updating to 2.87 since downloading programs older than 7 days is not possible without it, due recent changes (Oct 14). See: https://github.com/dinkypumpkin/get_iplayer/wiki/faq

You should be able to just change the version number and update the md5 sum as a temporary fix. If not, I have them already changed in my version of the package, so you can use that as a reference. I list slightly different dependancies IIRC. In addition to that, I have included several modified files from Debian to create a menu icon which will run a script file to launch the WebPVR. If anyone runs my package for Maemo5 on their N900, it's pretty much the same. Unfortunately I haven't uploaded the icons I use as I don't think i can :) If you want to use it you will have to supply the missing 32,48 and 64 pixel png icons. https://github.com/android-808/get_iplayer-PKGBUILD
