I know it is not "done" to reply to one's own posts, but I have some

was d/l I tried Mint - it failed and failed ...
So, as they say, "what's up Doc?"
I guess that rules out network or server problems. One thought: Check
the version number of package "librtmp0" and ensure it matches the
version number of package "rtmpdump". An Ubuntu user recently reported
troubles that were caused by a version mismatch, albeit with different
symptoms. I don't have a copy of Mint to check, but I wonder if your
Mint install may have pulled the older librtmp0 package from Ubuntu
repositories as a dependency for another package. If so, it would not
have been automatically upgraded during installation of get_iplayer from
the PPA. If that is what happened, you would likely have noticed
problems as soon as you installed the PPA version of get_iplayer. If so,
then just upgrade the librtmp0 package to the PPA version. If not, then
ignore this.
Not sure network is ruled out dp - with no changes whatsoever, this
evening is fine under Mint. Maybe the Windows d/l was just luck. I will
take your advice though and check versions.
Thank you for your help.
Clive
