If you're still seeing the "RTMP_HashSWF" error, then something went
wrong updating to latest patched version of get_iplayer.pl. You might
want to double-check: Search your copy of get_iplayer.pl for the .swf
URL referenced above.  If you find it, then you don't actually have the
latest patched version.  With the patched script, you shouldn't need to
specify --swfVfy on the command line, but see Christopher Woods'
response for how to do that.

You can also verify whether or not you're falling foul of this
verification problem by adding --verbose to your command line and, once
the HD download fails, looking for this in the output:

[ Client.SWFVerificiation.Rejected ] : status code 434

If none of the above pertain, you can also force rtmpdump to recheck the
verfication URL by adding this to your command line:

  --rtmptvopts "--swfAge 0"

Verification failure, of course, leaves the incomplete FLV files that 
may be causing your other errors.
