Get_iPlayer can't find a programme

[ac427]

I've upgraded to the latest version of Get_iPlayer and rebuilt the cache but it still cannot find the programme below for download.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0d3kv2z/russia-19851999-traumazone-series-1-7-p...n-1995-to-1999

I dumped the cache to a text file but still no joy.

Can anyone find the programme for download?

Thanks, Is Get_iPlayer no longer worthwhile or broken then?

'Can anyone find the programme for download?'

[gnodde]

Seems from LZAA his reply that it just works? so what is not working for you?

If you need a VPN for iplayer that might be your issue, they are very picky in my experience with VPNs, best use something like Mysterium VPN with a Resident connection that never fails.

If you actually try it, you'll find that get_iplayer still works as before:
