Latest example was from last night when Silent Witness failed. I erased

Whenever you kill a hung get_iplayer pvr process executed via cron, you
must ensure the lock file is deleted as well. It's only used when
performing pvr recording, so a one-off --get won't alert you to the problem.
My prefs are set as:-
Options in '/home/alastair/.get_iplayer/options'
tvmode = flashhd,flashvhigh,flashhigh,flashstd,flashnormal
flvstreamer = /usr/bin/flvstreamer
This is a bit of a reach, but consider using rtmpdump instead of
flvstreamer. In your options file:
flvstreamer = /usr/bin/rtmpdump (or wherever it's installed).
rtmpdump is a successor to flvstreamer, and it works a bit better with
iPlayer streams for several reasons (google "swf verification" for one).
I can't say if your results will be any better with rtmpdump, but it
should be easy to test.
