That's interesting. I have --tvmode best in my preferences and I
used --type tv on the command line, although I gather both are now defaults.
As I have said previously, that caused a HLSHD download, which ran to
completion but for the missing segment 13. After a few days I gave up with
HLSHD and then used --tvmode flashhd and that downloaded completely using
rtmpdump but it may be it would have failed if I had tried it sooner.
The difference between us seems to be I used --tvmode and you used --mode,
which includes --radiomode.
