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!

      Radio 2 Schedule Changes

      I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right!

      Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!

      Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.

      If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.

      The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!

      What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.

      Radio 1 Schedule Changes

      Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.

      He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard!

      The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.

      I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly.

      Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...

      Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
