Sorry - I'll try again.

Its so simple, hardly worth making a project.

I'm using get_iplayer in a Gambas project to download past BBC radio programmes.

It's working fine.  To listen to the programme, this is the code - get_iplayer --stream 13142 | mplayer -cache 3072 -, where 13142 is the programme's index in get_iplayer.

I can start the programme but can't stop it.

Anyway, here's a small project

Bill


PUBLIC hProc AS Process

PUBLIC SUB btnPlay_Click()
     hProc = SHELL ("get_iplayer --stream 13280 | mplayer -cache 3072 -") FOR WRITE
END

PUBLIC SUB btnStop_Click()
     IF hProc THEN hProc.Kill
END
