While researching the cause it became apparent that the files were
thousands of small chunks.
I have found that running them through Handbrake "fixes" them.
i do not see anything that get_iplayer may do to alleviate the
problem. this is a BBC issue.
Maybe related to DASH/HLS etc? (Aren't these now the defaults and us I
understand it use lots of tiny chunks to enable bit rate switching on
the fly if needed?) Perhaps forcing a non-DASH/HLS mode - one of the old
'flash' modes perhaps, if still available - could be a workaround?
Pure guesswork, might be totally wrong...
