Greetings Richard :-)

The "timeadded" part actually informs you
of when that specific audio programme first
populated your local "radio.cache" file;
it has nothing to do with the actual time
that audio file was uploaded/modified
by the BBC on their CDNs!
E.g., if I "--info" on my machine:

perl get_iplayer-296w.pl --type=radio --pid=p045j35r -i | FindStr timeadded

I get:

timeadded: 10 days 20 hours ago (2016-09-04T02:18:08+00:00)

(this specific radio show was
firstbcast:     original: 2016-09-03T06:00:00+01:00)

NO, they have not! You are using GiP 2.95, the "haf"
radiomodes were implemented in 2.96+ :

https://github.com/get-iplayer/get_iplayer/wiki/release296#3-combined-dash-haf-and-hlsaac-modes-now-default-for-radio-programmes-dash-preferred

ergo:

perl get_iplayer-296w.pl --type=radio --pid=p045j35r -i | FindStr "modes:"

modes:          original: 
dashhigh1,dashhigh2,dashstd1,dashstd2,dashmed1,dashmed
2,dashlow1,dashlow2,flashaacstd1,flashaacstd2,flashaaclow1,flashaaclow2,hafhigh1
,hafhigh2,hafstd1,hafstd2,hafmed1,hafmed2,haflow1,haflow2,hlsaacstd1,hlsaaclow1

whereas:

perl get_iplayer-295.pl --type=radio --pid=p045j35r -i | FindStr "modes:"

modes:          original: 
dashhigh1,dashhigh2,dashstd1,dashstd2,dashmed1,dashmed
2,dashlow1,dashlow2,flashstd1,flashstd2,flashlow1,flashlow2,hlsstd1,hlsstd2,hlss
td3,hlslow1

For the sake of "silent" people who
only read the list archives and do not
participate directly in this list, it is prudent
no false data gets through...

Kindest regards,
