Also radio download problems, principally from World Service

[M Clark]

Firstly thank you for this wonderful software allowing playback when out & about.

Over the last fortnight, or so, I've experienced servere problems downloading World Service (mostly) programmes.

I was using version 2.85, then upgraded to 2.86 but this hasn't cured my problem.
System is Windoze Vista, errors occur with both PVR and CLI,
ISP connection fine, c10Mbit/s.
In answer to a question on the other radio problem thread, my Option file is empty.

I've run with verbose & debug arguements but nothing stands out


This is my current list of un-downlaodables, others having fallen off the seven day cut-off.

· Revealing China's dirty secret of toxic land - 18/04/2014 (p01x7n7z)
· Science in Action - Japanese Whaling Ban (p01wr8h0)
· Witness - Bay of Pigs Invasion (p01x7n74)
· Business Matters - China's Contamination Crisis (p01x9y0v)
· Revealing China's dirty secret of toxic land - 18/04/2014 (p01x7n8n)


Whilst all seem to abend rtmpdump.exe, file size output varies from c128kB to no file at all.

No one consistent error, here is output from some failed downloads;
