Puzzled by this item for the following reasons:

I watched the broadcast on the BBC Parliament (DVB-T2) channel and that
ended before the 'second half' of the panel sitting. However I downloaded a
copy using gip on the 16th.

This *also* was ended part-way though the sitting. So I checked the webpage
and that states the duration is over 3 hours. Yet what I got was 1h 33m
long.

Webpage is at
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001vkll

This morning I tried again in case they'd changed this. The result gave me
a *different* filename for the same PID, and again despight the webpage
indicating it was the full sitting of the committee, only the first 1h 33m.

Puzzled by both the truncation differering from what the webpage claims,
and the change of file name.

Am I doing something wrong? Not seen this effect before in years of using
gip for many items.

Looks like an initial error at source which has now been corrected. After reading your post around lunch-time, I set it to download it as a test, and have just noticed that it finished around 1330hrs. It downloaded successfully as "Select Committees Horizon IT Scandal Inquiry.mp4" 3.09GB, 1:33:18 long, 1280x720x50 and random seeking within the file seems to play back successfully. The command given was:

perl <path>\get_iplayer.pl --profile-dir=<path>  --pid m001vkll -g
