Good to know.
I think I've figured out how to support the Olympics streams without
breaking existing functionality (and thus no need for a special
versionof get_iplayer). I've merged those changes into the master
branch. To install, see Git HEAD section in:
https://github.com/dinkypumpkin/get_iplayer/wiki/installation
With the latest changes, you should use the player page for the stream
of interest:
get_iplayer http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/winter-olympics/25831835
--modes=best --type=livetv
Note the use of --type=livetv. That will remove the need to use --force
for recording subsequent chunks of the same programme. It also adds a
timestamp to the output file name, which means that recording subsequent
chunks won't fail because a pre-existing file is found. You can still
use --stop.
If the above doesn't work, let me know and fall back to the method I
posted earlier using a special version of get_iplayer.
