That's fine, it's better to be precise! Thanks for your help so far,
it's greatly appreciated.

> I think, however, as a working hypothesis, that an upgrade to rtmpdump 2.3

I manually copied over rtmpdump.exe 2.3 to the C:\Program Files
(x86)\get_iplayer\rtmpdump-2.2d folder but the result was the same. I
then uninstalled get_iplayer using the uninstaller supplied and
deleted all files in C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program
Files (x86)\get_iplayer just to be sure.

After reinstallation of the latest get_iplayer,
get_iplayer_setup_latest, rtmpdump 2.2d was installed into the
get_iplayer folder at C:\Program Files
(x86)\get_iplayer\rtmpdump-2.2d. I then copied over rtmpdump 2.3 - and
the result was the same as before.

After fiddling with ' and " I managed to get this:

Does that look likely? Is there anything else that I could try? Thanks
again for your time! It's greatly appreciated.
