Hi Chris
At the moment there are a lot of programmes appearing with missing segments on 
hls modes. Which modes it affects is random. At least with Masterchef you found 
that it failed right at the beginning on segment 1, but you could easily find 
that with some programmes you get half way through or more and then it fails 
with a missing segment. hvfxsd is pretty much the same as the one you were 
trying to download. You could use that as a fallback and use 
--modes=hlsvhigh,hvfxsd and if the hlsvhigh download fails at any point it will 
use hvfxsd. If these missing segments keep happening you might want to switch 
to hvfxsd completely and bypass hls.
