Subject: Level3 CDN issue affecting RTMP HD downloads

Currently there seems to be an issue with the Level3 CDN that supplies RTMP
HD downloads of iPlayer content.

This issue was identified by 'tvfan' over in the forums[1].

A resolution workaround has been identified by dinkypumpkin[2].

Hopefully this issue won't last too long and things will be back to normal
shortly.

Just as a matter of interest, I am recording Weds's Timeshift on BBC4 which
seems to record in HD OK. 
I am using Windows Home Server 2011 and gip v2.94 with the web PVR
interface. Incidentally, I find that the browser PVR interface works well
for me 99% of the time. In fact I seldom seem to have any problems, maybe I
am just lucky!
