... Actually yes! But:

1. First indicate the version of GiP used;
nothing in your post identifies that, my bet
is you're still on previous version 3.03,
so the rest of my answer is based on that
assumption; if it's not true, then please
disregard...

2. Both I and Alan recently posted in this list
about the advent of bug-fix version GiP 3.04:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/get_iplayer/2017-October/011183.html
List members are invited to read linked
release notes even when not initially planning
an immediate update...

Fixed a serious bug introduced in v3.03 that could cause
MP4 conversions to be skipped when using the PVR function.
If you are using v3.03, you are strongly urged
to upgrade to v3.04 immediately.

For the record, the bug was identified after the
following Forum thread:
https://squarepenguin.co.uk/forums/thread-1518-newpost.html
Code commit that fixed it:
https://github.com/get-iplayer/get_iplayer/commit/bdf3c7eb990e49953aea34f43ce2f378307c959b

So, if you're on GiP 3.03, the "simple way to resolve"
your issue is to upgrade to 3.04 (!).

I have commented about it in the past, but the current
workflow in GiP development (issues tracker removed,
"contribute" branch only updated publicly after a major
stable release) might (and has several times) make the released
version more prone to undetected bugs, which rear their
ugly heads until after the "master" branch script is let loose...
So that's why you should also look at
https://github.com/get-iplayer/get_iplayer/wiki/issues
some time after a tag release...

Vangelis.
