Sorry to be dense, but can anyone explain exactly how to fix the problem on a Windows PC, please?

Very many thanks,

Chris


The 'quick fix' I applied, which solved my problem, involved manually editing the get_iplayer.pl file. This is probably wrong on many levels but it did the job, and I believe my changes will magically disappear at the next upgrade - but still be warned, and it's probably a good idea to back up files etc.

The file to change is probably in C:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer ( depends on your windows version ) and will be called get_iplayer.pl

This is a text file, but not easily read in notepad as the line endings are not in a format that windows is happy with - wordpad is probably just about usable, I used 'programmers notepad' to edit it.

Editing that file, find line 7099 ( or search the file for 'Missing #EXT-X-STREAM-INF for URL' to get to the correct place ), and on that line only, change $$conn to $con

save the file, and it now seems to work - at least on that particular download at that particular time.
