The 'quick fix' I applied, which solved my problem, involved manually 
editing the get_iplayer.pl file. This is probably wrong on many levels 
but it did the job, and I believe my changes will magically disappear at 
the next upgrade - but still be warned, and it's probably a good idea to 
back up files etc.

The file to change is probably in C:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer ( 
depends on your windows version ) and will be called get_iplayer.pl

This is a text file, but not easily read in notepad as the line endings 
are not in a format that windows is happy with - wordpad is probably 
just about usable, I used 'programmers notepad' to edit it.

Editing that file, find line 7099 ( or search the file for 'Missing 
#EXT-X-STREAM-INF for URL' to get to the correct place ), and on that 
line only, change $$conn to $con

save the file, and it now seems to work - at least on that particular 
download at that particular time.
