"--info"-ing yesterday's --pid=b08qlg9p

perl get_iplayer-301.pl --type=tv --pid=b08qlg9p -i | findstr hls one can see that only
hlshd1,hlshd2,hlsvhigh1,hlsvhigh2

are now offered from the group of the legacy (non Video Factory, aka hvf*) AppleHLS tvmodes. Actually, both "1" variants are identical to their "2" counterparts and served from Akamai CDN, they only differ in the protocol used (1=HTTPS, 2= HTTP). So that leaves us with only 2 quality variants from the legacy AppleHLS streams:
hlshd => 1280x720p @25FPS
hlsvhigh => 832x468p @25FPS

If you're still (or can use) previous versions of GiP that come with RTMP stream support, you'll find the same to be true for the (legacy) flash tvmodes. To re-enable detection of flash modes you'll have to apply the patch I posted in the second part of http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/get_iplayer/2017-May/010720.html

In GiP 2.99 (last version with flash support), perl get_iplayer-299.pl --type=tv --pid=b08qlg9p -i will reveal that now only flashhd1,flashvhigh1,flashvhigh2 modes are offered.
flashhd  => 1280x720p @25FPS
flashvhigh => 832x468p @25FPS
(1= Akamai CDN, 2= Limelight CDN).

If it's anything to go by (obviously I haven't tested many PIDs), this displays a trend...
