Can you confirm last compatible version for mac os 10.13.6 is "Get.iPlayer.Automator.v1.24.4.b20221118002 " and if so should there be a opsys compatibility check before installing later versions.

Agreed, but would also be nice seeing this sort of major breaking change (to users eyes) being reflected in a version number bump (ala semantic version numbers) to at least highlight this. You shouldn't lose capability to run the app in a x.x.1 bump IMHO.

Yes, sorry -- I mentioned that I would be dropping support for macOS 10.x in the release notes of a previous version, mainly because Xcode no longer supports building for versions prior to 10.13. I will add the minimum OS version to the updater so you won't see newer versions.

Thanks all for your work here.... can anyone point me to a way reinstalling a working version now it's been overwritten by the new non-compatible one? Thanks :)
[update] I'm on MacOS 10.12.6 so I need an old version

Great many thanks again

[edit] And I've now found that link to all the releases on the main page on the right, my eyes had glazed over before they found that....

I'm stuck on Monterey 12.6.2. I updated iPlayer-A from 1.24.4 and regretted it, lucky I have Time Machine back-ups to go back to. I understand you need to keep software moving on but it's going to be so expensive to update a whole Mac for just one application, especially one I use every day along with a hacked iTunes install that's no longer available. I fill my old iPod with BBC daily radio shows to listen to all night. I shall be completely stuck without that.

You'll be fine on Monterey, which is 12.x. It will be a long time before I do anything that requires macOS Ventura.

Phew! Thanks
