Hi all
The list keeps bouncing my message with 'Message has a suspicious 
header'...hope I get through this time!

I haven't used get_iplayer since April as I was out of the UK, with 
limited internet access. When I got back, I got a new laptop (AMD 
quad-core, 6GB RAM, Windows 8), and have just tried get_iplayer on it 
with the newest install (2.82 with rtmpdump 2.4). I used to go with the 
command line, as my old laptop was a slow 7-yr old WinXP. However, the 
command line on my new system doesn't seem to work.
 
The initial loading lines appear, then the list of all current BBC 
programmes (Total 1700 or something), then the cmd-line window closes 
by itself.
 
get_player v2.82, Copywrite etc...
Matches:
1: Newsnight
2: etc...
Total: 1700
Close
 
Trying the pvr version that opens in Firefox results in the attached 
error messages.
 
The recurring error message seems to be:
ERROR: RTMP_ReadPacket, failed to read RTMP packet header
INFO: Command exit code 1 (raw code = 256)
and these once each:
ERROR: WriteN, RTMP send error 10054 (42 bytes)
ERROR: WriteN, RTMP send error 10053 (18 bytes)
ERROR: WriteN, RTMP send error 10053 (42 bytes)
 
I seem to remember that previously there were sometimes fiddly things to 
add/write in the get_player folder, or other parts of Windows, to get it 
working. But I don't remember what any of these were...and since my old 
laptop has given up the ghost (why I got a new one), and I haven't been 
able to access the hard-drive yet, I can't check if the problem is just 
with my new laptop, or with Windows 8, but not XP. It shouldn't be a 
problem with my connection, as this laptop's in-built wifi is miles more 
reliable than the USB one I had previously (which was the source of many 
download drop-outs), and downloads from other sites work fine.
 
I had a look through recent posts, and haven't found anything so far that 
helped. 
 
Cheers in advance for any ideas. Hope this post is correctly-formatted - 
like I said, it's been a while since I wrote here.
