rtmpdump... error... info exit code 1 - means that rtmpdump failed. Not immediately evident from the log is that this suggests that you're using a buggy version of rtmpdump. I think it's a commit on 7th November 2011 that fixed this. Try building a newer version of rtmpdump. If you're using ubuntu I'd suggest you use ppa:jon-hedgerows/get-iplayer > WARNING: Retry recording for 'Essential Classics - Wednesday - Rob > Cowan (b01g5ytp)' get_iplayer is retrying... > ERROR: Failed to get iphone URL from iplayer site this is a red herring. ignore it. it's got nothing to do with the rtmpdump error. it'll go away when the current batch of changes get wrapped up into a new get_iplayer release. iphone mode doesn't work any more (and hasn't done for a while ;-) (or take iphone mode out of the list of modes you're using, or pull a more recent version of get_iplayer from git).
