It’s a get_iplayer bug that crops up when no 1080p stream is available. Work 
around it with —exclude-format=hls

I have seen this too. I think get_iplayer is trying to get the
programme in full HD, but actually it is only available in 720p
I think it's a bug in get_iplayer - either full HD isn't there and it
thinks it is, or the programme is only in 720p and get_iplayer doesn't know
that

Experimental HD and audio only downloads

2022-04-07 Thread fred.d
I've found that a lot of content seems to be available in the new Full 
HD format. However every so often I come across one that downloads only 
the audio. Playing with parameters and download method doesn't help so 
I'm guessing it's the far end.


Anyone know if this is a get_Iplayer thing or is it simply that the 
files on the BBC sites aren't 100% when it comes to this quality?
