impossible to download hd files with flashhd

[Clive]

I can't help with the problem but I can confirm that Dr Who Ep 2 is 
available as HD.

I have had this problem lots but it went away when I installed the 
latest get_iplayer perl script. I am using Vista and the get_iplayer 
technique is remarkably stable.
