Good morning all.

I have been a get_iplayer user for several years now, generally running the Windows Web PVR version (on XP home edition, presently using v2.82) with a big long list of PVR searches saved up. Generally I have no problems with it, however recently I have been experiencing issues when downloading videos, perhaps going back a few months, but it`s getting worse of late. Radio has no trouble, but now it seems virtually every time I attempt downloading a video, it stalls. Downloads a few hundred KB, then stops and the CPU sits at 100% activity forever until I close the program down, delete the fragment of the file it started downloading from the download folder, and start again. Usually have to do this two or three times now before it works. Here`s a typical result from an attempted download:


The PVR will auto-run every 4 hour(s) if you leave this page open

and then almost immediately RTMPDump goes 100% CPU usage, with the fan blaring. Had to re-start it about four times to get it to finally download. In this instance, it then gave:

however usually it gets on with the download using the original flashvhigh1 mode. The same happens when using flashhd modes.

So, my question is does anyone know what might be causing this, and is there a fix?


Many thanks in advance for your assistance.
