I too use this
And all is well
Double check your GIP is 2.99 from Malcolm's repo
I would suggest toggling the repo switch on Packman, then on Malcolm's

According to Dinky, the latest break at the BBC end means that "The BBC

So we can't get new programs not in the cache?

I am seeing similar here

It has happened with 2 different programs in the last week - initial
downloads via HLSHD result in broken files and if I retry I see 2
errors, repeated:

"WARNING: Segment not found (xxx)"
"WARNING: There may be a gap near yyy secs in programme"

If I then retry using FLASHHD the download completes without error.

So, it appears that the beeb's HLS encoding/streaming is producing
corrupt files.

I just retried one that failed this morning (The Living and the Dead -
Episode 6, BBC One, p03wv7v0) and I am still getting the errors - one
at 27.7% (Segment 93, 920 secs) and another at 64.6% (Segment 214,
2130 secs)
