Judging from your log, you never really started recording.  It could 
have been bad connections, though more likely problems at the server. 
It looks like every stream failed, so you would have downloaded 
virtually nothing.  When get_iplayer finds that an attempt produced 
<100KiB output, it presumes failure and deletes the file.
