• Trying to install omxplayer, but my RPi tells me it's not available?

• Newbie, sorry if questions are obvious, not that tech savvy! 1. Recommended jdownloader2 to rip BBC sounds - copied link & faced with hundreds of lines, how do I identify which is music file? 2. Fed up with vinyl only albums not having digital d/l, can anyone recommend to use site to find digi copy?

  For downloading from BBC Sounds - Youtube-DLG is what you want - https://mrs0m30n3.github.io/youtube-dl-gui/. Just paste the link in and it will download it. You can also use get_iplayer if you want to dabble in the command line stuff. Source: about 1 year ago
