OK. Let's see if this muddies the water a little... I disabled all add-ons in Firefox 14.0.1 - still the same problem. I ran Firefox in Safe Mode - still the same problem. I switched to IE V8 - still the same problem. I've downloaded and installed Opera v12.01 - still the same problem. All this is when using get_iplayer v2.82, RTMPDump 2.4 and ffmpeg v0.8 under Win XP SP3 On another machine under Win 7 Pro (all Windows updates applied) and a slightly earlier version of get_iplayer (v2.80). RTMPDump and ffmpeg versions are as per the XP machine and all have been installed for some time. Firefox 14.0.1 worked with add-ons enabled but when I tried it with them disabled, I got the same error. Enabling the add-ons again did not resolve the problem so now it does not work. IE V8 - still the same problem Safari v5.1.7 - still the same problem Bemused and confused? I certainly am!
