Jan, here is how I read your first page instructions...

1) Add repository to catalogue then exit

2) Open xTerminal and paste in this:

sudo gainroot
apt-get update
apt-get install iplayer-dl
echo 'alias iplayer="iplayer-dl -d /home/user/MyDocs/.videos"' >> /home/user/.profile

3) Exit xTerminal, reopen and type:

iplayer URL

Didn't you or someone here say you should run the echo part as user and not root? If so, your instructions on page 1 are wrong as you said run the 3 commands and as an extra, run a 4th command (the echo) THEN exit xTerminal.

That aside I get this:

Code:
BusyBox v1.10.2 (Debian 3:1.10.2.legal-1osso26+0m5) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

/home/user # apt-get update

Guys, Iv'e got it.

I had Ruby installed from App Manager as well. I uninstalled that and reinstalled iplayer and it works fine. Big thanks to everyone. Big thanks to Big Jan.

@gohan
That is correct. The coding that you have pasted is just the repositories updating. It does not matter if all of them do not update as there is a problem with some of them at the moment. Just leave it till it gets to 100% and the curser comes back. All the commands you have written are correct so it should install.

EDIT
It looks as though its ignoring Kaspernj repository. Are you sure its not disabled. Go into application manager then catalogues. Click on kaspernj repository and make sure disabled is not checked.

When I run:

sudo gainroot
apt-get update
apt-get install iplayer-dl
echo 'alias iplayer="iplayer-dl -d /home/user/MyDocs/.videos"' >> /home/user/.profile

it starts timing out around 87 percent and the files at the end fail.

Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

-sh: Reading: not found
-sh: Building: not found
-sh: Reading: not found
~ $ iplayer
-sh: iplayer: not found
Now it says reading and building not found....

EDIT, the Kaspernj repository is not disabled, I just checked. This is all a giant headache, I am sorry

You arn't typing all the commands in together are you? do them one at a time pressing enter in between. We will get there in the end :-)

YES, actually downloading an iplayer video file now, it will be going to home/user/MyDocs/.which is outside my 2GB partition but what if I exit out of xTerminal and download another file later? is it just iplayer URL again or must I type in that echo command line before hand?

thanks so much all. Sorry Jan about calling your simplified instructions rubbish but I still stand by what I said HOWEVER your recent edits have been good but please may I suggest you make clear that the 4 commands be executed one at a time? To prevent idiots like me trying to run all commands at once. You grouped 3 commands together which was why I thought they must be executed together in one go.
