Good evening Clive...

 The reason you get your "regular" file names is exactly what you 
yourself state:

> My --prefs file contains the following line:

So we know  that at least the substitution parameters 
<nameshort>, <senum>, <episodeshort>, <firstbcast> 
do still work.
 If you didn't have the user defined option --file-prefix 
added to your options file (via --prefs-add), then I suspect 
the default file name string GiP generates would've been 
as I reported...
And, by the way, do all of your radio downloads of this 
evening have an embedded thumbnail (embedding 
done by AtomicParsley normally, while 
"MP4 tagging M4A file")?
