Thank you - "hvfxhigh" is exactly what I was looking for! That's given me a
390MB file for "MasterChef", compared to 810MB for "hvfxsd" and 1GB for
"hlshd". I'll use that as my default mode from now on.
Having read an earlier post, I did actually replace "ffmpeg" with the
version from 2.99 after I'd upgraded to 3.00, and that seems to be working
fine for me, other than the problems with the "dvf" version which, as you
advise, I'll avoid in the future.
Thanks for your help - it's very much appreciated.
Cheers,
Chris

That's my fault. I was looking at the mode you had tried for Masterchef
rather than the mode I knew you were after. What you actually want is
hvfxhigh which should be the sort of size and quality you are used to.
The dvf modes download as 2 separate files (audio + video) and then use
ffmpeg to stitch them together into 1 file. As you are on XP though you
might have trouble with that unless you downgrade your version of ffmpeg.
I'd ignore dvf modes for now.
It is just coincidence that HLS files have started becoming corrupted on the
server at the same time as a major upgrade was needed to GiP. Being on 2.99
would still have errors.
