Don't top post. It has made this thread unreadable.
When doing this chunking, you should use --attempts=1 to instruct
get_iplayer not to retry/resume failed downloads. As Stuart said,
retry/resume will almost always fail with --start/--stop. That should
allow the first chunk to get re-muxed to MP4 and tagged with metadata.
It won't work for succeeding chunks (i.e., those with --start
specified), but they can be re-muxed separately.
