Dear all, I'm new to get_iplayer and some of its dependencies, so please forgive me if I'm missing something basic.
On OS X 10.6.8, after installing ffmpeg, RTMPDump and get_iplayer, I entered the following in the Terminal application, in the get_iplayer directory: ./get_iplayer "tv:http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone/clips/thermal-imagery-in-the-desert/3204.html" --fileprefix="bbc_clip" --modes=iphone,flashhd,flashvhigh,flashhigh,flashstd,flashnormal,flashlow The result (I've censored the username) was: get_iplayer v2.79, Copyright (C) 2008-2010 Phil Lewis This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details use --warranty.

I'm unsure how to proceed, and would welcome constructive suggestions!
