Older versions of ffmpeg either croak on the overlapping timestamps

I guess this is the "stream" of errors I witnessed during my test...
It would be nice to get rid of a dependency, but get_iplayer
still uses mplayer for WMA downloads. Until we can reliably offload
those tasks to ffmpeg, we'll need to keep mplayer around.
As discussed last January here:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/get_iplayer/2013-January/003764.html
in my own tests I have found out that 1.x builds of FFmpeg are a very
reliable
means of downloading wma streams (albeit in realtime, like MPlayer...)
