As Ed pointed out, if your copy of get_iplayer is still attempting to 
access:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/emp/10player.swf?revision=18269_21576

then you don't have the latest version of either my fork on github or 
the infradead version (which both have the same patch for this issue). 
Download again, or see Steve Anderson's reply for the quick hack you 
need.  It really is a one-line fix.
