In each case, all I see is a blank Firefox window with the address bar
set to 'about:blank', a single tab with the animated 'Connecting...'
icon and the 'Waiting or 127.0.0.1...' status message which you already
covered in your previous post.

Thanks for the additional info. It looks to me as if Firefox is at fault rather than get_iplayer. When you click on, e.g., "Run PVR", the web pvr runs some Javascript to submit a form and target the response to a new window. The form submit is obviously working since the downloads are successful, but something is preventing the new window from opening properly (connected to the web pvr). I wouldn't expect the popup blocker to interfere, so perhaps you've installed a Firefox add-on that is misbehaving? In any event, I can't duplicate the problem in any browser, so I'm fairly confident get_iplayer is working as intended. It's not much, but here are a couple of other things to check:

1. Connect to the web pvr in another browser. If you don't have Internet Explorer, try Opera. If it runs OK in another browser, that would confirm Firefox as the culprit.

2. Connect to the web pvr with Firefox in safe mode (Help -> Restart with Add-ons disabled...). If it runs OK, then you'll need to switch back to normal mode, disable all your add-ons, then enable them one at a time until you find the one causing problems.

If a misbehaving add-on isn't at fault, a full uninstall/reinstall of Firefox might be in order.
