I named script mike.py and gave permissions 755 and it contains the following lines:
import os
os.system('get_iplayer.cgi --port=1935 --get_iplayer=/usr/bin/get_iplayer')
get_iplayer.cgi is in the /home/xbmc folder, and i have also copied it to the /home/xbmc/.xbmc folder.
Can you think of anything else please?
i am running xbmc 9.11 r26018 installed from live cd.
Thanks

Stange.
Thats how I discovered you could launch the command in xbmc ( from the scripts ) then went down the route of starting it automatically.
The file doesn't have to be executable, I created mine in windows notepad then FTP`d it over to the appropriate folder. didn't do anything else to it.
I'm also running an install from the live cd 9.11 final, You can try the putting in the full path like suggested above, it cant hurt to try.
