The specifics of my repeated failures is: I'm trying to download the 2nd series of The Split. I used g --pid=p0818j9r --pid-recursive and got the 1st 3 episodes perfectly, followed by failed attempts at episodes 4-6.
The I used this command g --pid p0818kjf,p0818l1y,p0818lfz to get the last 3 episodes - this has failed at least 10 times. And typidcal speeds I see vary between 0.3 to 1.1. I have tried at many different times throughout a 24-hour period. Errors I see are often like the following: INFO: Downloading tv: 'The Split: Series 2 - 05. Episode 5 (p0818l1y) [original]' WARNING: Using existing DASH audio file: D:\Downloads\BBCiPlayerDownloads\The_Split_Series_2_-_05._Episode_5_p0818l1y_original.dash.m4a WARNING: Use --overwrite to re-download INFO: Downloaded: 11.72 MB (00:00:38) @ 1.27 Mb/s (dvfsd1/bi) [video] WARNING: Unexpected size for file segment [18] WARNING: Expected: 1415668 Downloaded: 736248 WARNING: This indicates a problem with your network connection to the media server WARNING: No streams available for 'original' version (p0818l42) - skipping (retry) My relevant preferences are as follows: tvmode = dvfsd,dvfxsd subtitles = 1 subsmono = 1 Today (at around 2am) I have got to 87.6% of Episode 4 (0.99GB) before failing again. If relevant, only Episode 1 is in the cache, hence my use of PIDs.
