I let RadioDLD run last night and it does indeed work outside the UK. Just be patient and it will work.

BBC Radio directory pages take about 2 minutes to load the first time, and it takes about 45 minutes to download a three-hour show. The progress bar won't update until the downloading process is done and then once again when the conversion process is done, but the files will indeed save properly. Just make sure whatever firewall you're using punches a hole through (see what to allow on the RadioDLD page) otherwise RadioDLD won't work at all.

get_iplayer is good. http://linuxcentre.net/getiplayer/download (any platform inc. Windoze)

this is the best software. most of the other downloaders get the 44kbps realplayer stream. this tool tricks i player it into thinking it's an i phone, and you get the high quality 128kbps mp3's as a result. so to put it simply it's the tits.

on the grid.

How do you get it to actually stream the iPhone option? It never finds the iPhone stream for me in the USA so I have to use flashlow1, which sounds just the same as what I get out of Radio DLD without having to jump through command line entry hoops.

it was mentioned somewhere that this is how the software gets the 128kbps mp3's. i just follow the online instructions, in the documentation and it seems to do the rest:-

i don't see a reason why it shouldn't work in the states.

i can't be bothered with my dab plugin these days now the i player is here. i just grab anything i need from that, unless it's a really special show. then i use sky + for the 192kbps stream.

You're most welcome! I've downloaded every show for a few months now, always something to listen to when bored in work!

      Summer on Radio 1

      By ianwilk1999 · Posted

      Yeah they make the weekend shifts go so much quicker. Like today, the piece about Matt falling asleep in the cafe was funny, it's clear to see why they're going to weekdays. It could well be they were thinking of Danny for it and like you say have decided against that, or like I said at the start it's James Cusack and the slow down on the announcement is him getting out of his contract. Remember he works for radio 1's main rivals. I think it's quite telling that he's doing more r1 cover than usual, tomorrow and then a further 3 weekend shows in a row

      I suspect they’re gonna tie the announcement into something, or they’ve changed plans. I know we’ve said it as a joke but I wonder if Aled was planning on giving it to someone like Danny Beard, but he’s decided against that after the last few weeks. Seems clear to me, though, that if Jordan hadn’t left, then Katie would’ve taken Dean and Vicky’s slot and Matt and Mollie would’ve stayed on weekends, which probably explains why they haven’t picked a replacement yet. If it was going to be the obvious choice, I.e. James Cusack, surely they would’ve announced it by now..?

      Yep think they mentioned that this is their penultimate weekend of shows but then they will also be on air during Big Weekend and they mentioned they'll be doing 'Party Anthems' on stage during Big Weekend which sounds intriguing. Will miss Matt & Mollie on weekends - they in particular have made that Friday afternoon slot their own - but they'll be great on weekdays. Do wonder if 'Summer on Radio 1' is just a placeholder name until they decide on who will cover the interim. While it's obviously not the case it does feel like they've forgotten there's that weekend afternoon slot to fill given no permenant presenter has been announced for it yet.

      And Arielle mentioned in her Instagram post that her final early breakfast show is the 27th of June - the Thursday before Glastonbury

      When Matt covered breakfast on 22nd April, he said their new show was starting in 10 weeks, so that’d be the 1st July.

      Would love for it to be like the Summer Friday Thing that me and @DC were remisincing about recently. Lots of events going on that could easily form part of it.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/summer/cardiff/thursday/1.shtml

      I'm guessing there is also a stack of weekend events like Glastonbury

      I think more likely it'll just be a temp presenter for weekends 1-4 to give Matt & Mollie time off, plus time to plan and pilot the new show.

      By Dan18F1 · Posted

      Yeah I don’t think they’ll be anything that drastic - maybe a week or 2 of cover on early breakfast etc, but maybe just having that weekend afternoon slot covered over the summer means they can put someone on from September who maybe isn’t available until then?

      But they said the main changes would happen in July.

      I wouldn't be surprised if they do this around June time: 05.00 Ore Olukoga 07.00 Greg James 10.30 RMC 14.00 VKJ  That'll probably happen (for my guess) from the 17th June. And for weekends: 07:00 Sam & Danni 11:00 Gregor Davidson 15:00 Charlie Hedges Maybe Fridays aswell: 07:00 Greg James 11:00 Gregor Davidson 14:30 Jack Saunders
