That's right; the 2.95 release notes informs us that this option is ignored and no longer works.

...Not quite! If you are referring to line:
The --refresh-future option is ignored, so searching of future schedules will not work.

present in the 2.95 Release Notes, then a more careful reading will reveal that this sentence is under "chapter" 6 of the Notes:
6. Fallback indexing: For when the BBC plays with matches

so it is only true when the --ybbcy switch has been added to options (I hope we never have to resort to that!).

In fact, the issue first reported by James Daley and then confirmed by terry is due to a bug; the code maintainer has become aware since and has created issue #267 in the GitHub tracker, later closed by commit git-992d670 in the develop branch:
https://github.com/get-iplayer/get_iplayer/commit/992d670

I am not a user of the "--refresh-future" feature, but interested parties are welcome to check the fix in the latest 2.96-dev edition of the main script:

Cheers, Vangelis.
