It doesn't here. :(
According to the metadata, the following modes are available:
flashhigh1=7MB,flashlow1=3MB,rtsphigh1=7MB,rtsplow1=3MB
How do you find that, please?
Here I have the same problem when trying to get --info:

It seems to be treating the URL as a PID. I installed the XML::Simple
perl module the other day, but I'm still somewhat suspicious this is
some kind of dependency thing, or a perl versioning bug.
I'm particularly suspicious of the URL http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/http://playlists.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-11518390A/playlist.sxml.rdf
in the verbose output (see attached).
Could I possibly ask what version of Perl you have installed, please?
Here `perl --version` shows v5.8.8. I'm running on Linux, although I
can see you're obviously on Windows.
I'm using:
get_iplayer -g --url http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-11518501
with the following in my option file:
modes
flashhd
,flashvhigh,flashhigh,flashstd,flashnormal,flashaachigh,flashaacstd
subtitles 1
isodate 1
outputradio Z:\Vidz
outputtv Z:\Vidz
subdir 1
nopurge 1
#player 'mplayer -cache 128 -'
thumbsize 832
thumbsizecache 832
atomicparsley C:\atom.exe
#ffmpeg
flvstreamer c:\rtmp\rtmpdump.exe
#id3v2
#lame
#mplayer
#vlc
metadata generic
versions default,signed,audiodescribed
I can't see that my options look substantially different from that.
