I just tried hafhigh1 to get last night's Prom. Again this gave me the 500 error, but completed OK regardless. Given what you wrote about CDNs I noticed that the progress line showed "(hafhigh1/ak) after the ETA. I don't know what the "ak" means there but it made me wonder if I was still getting contact with Akamai? FWIW The error gets reported before the download commences. I'll try other mode specs when I get a chance and see if I can vary the behaviour.
