I receive a daily email of my favourite "--since 24" search preset (check out get_iplayer's "--email" option - I'm really pleased with it), I just "--pvr-queue" programmes that I'm interested in (or add series using --pvr-add) and then run `get_iplayer --pvr` in a nightly cron job.

I've only used it in real time so far - I've been meaning to delve
deeper into the options and automate it more.

I've been using get_iplayer for some time now. The earliest file I
still have is dated 26th June but I am sure I was using it a long time
before that.

I've only noticed this particular type of corruption in the last week.
I noticed the brainfart messages back around 9th Dec which is what
prompted me to update ffmpeg. This Nigel Slater was the first HD
content ive downloaded since then.
