First, Happy Holidays to you all!
Now, both the following episodes of "Five Minutes With..." (a BBC News talk
show) DO NOT appear inside the tv cache:
1.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01pqdc1/Five_Minutes_With..._Christmas_Special_2012/
(First broadcast BBC News Channel, 4:30AM Sat, 22 Dec 2012; available until
7:59AM Tue, 1 Jan 2013)
2.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01pqdzv/Five_Minutes_With..._Best_Ever_part_1/
(First broadcast BBC News Channel, 1:30AM Mon, 24 Dec 2012; available until
1:59AM Mon, 31 Dec 2012),
despite running:
get_iplayer -f --force
They can, however, still be recorded via the "pid" method, e.g.
get_iplayer -i --pid=b01pqdc1 --modes=flashvhigh --force
C:\Program
Files\get_iplayer>get_iplayer -i --pid=b01pqdc1 --modes=flashvhigh --

I am using get_iplayer.pl version 2.82-git-fa7d46f-20121114192455
with perl 5.10 on Win32.
My gut feeling is this has something to do with
the 3 dots (...) on the programmes' title, but I am awaiting further
confirmation from the real experts...
So, not a real problem in essence, but I thought I had better report it, in
case
it is not just me (and in an effort to make get_iplayer even better!).
Happy New Year!
