Maybe it's irrelevant, but my computer is old and I haven't had the time
to format it and reinstall everything in about a year and a half, maybe
two years. Maybe something, somewhere among the (maybe) hundreds of
useless archives that need a cleanup has something to do with this? If
everything seems alright with get_iplayer, rtmpdump, etc., it's the only
thing I can think of.
I'm sure it's not irrelevant, but the precise cause of the problem is so
far shrouded from the gaze of us mere mortals. I'm grasping at straws
now, but here is my last throw of the dice, if you're game:
1. Copy the file below to a safe location:
C:\Program Files\get_iplayer\get_iplayer.pl
You will need to restore the copy later.
2. Open C:\Program Files\get_iplayer\get_iplayer.pl in Wordpad. If you
have a preferred text editor, use that, but *don't* use Notepad.
3. Search for the line that looks exactly like:
my $rtmpver = `"$bin->{flvstreamer}" --help 2>&1`;
It should be near line #8038 in the file.
4. Immediately after the line referenced above insert:
print "ANDA1 -> $?\n";
print "ANDA2 -> $bin->{flvstreamer}\n";
print "ANDA3 -> $rtmpver\n";
exit 1;
5. Save the file.
6. Re-run your download command in the get_iplayer window. The lines
you entered above will make get_iplayer print some additional info and
then quit before actually attempting to launch rtmpdump. The additional
info should show the output from "rtmpdump --help" (if any) that
get_iplayer is attempting to parse.
7. When you're finished, restore the backup copy of get_iplayer.pl to
C:\Program Files\get_iplayer
