hello

to determine the smallest file available you may want to use:
get_iplayer-2.99/get_iplayer --info --verbose --type=radio --pid=<pid>

you should see output with a modesizes section.

here is an example:
modesizes:      other:
dafhigh1=32MiB,dafhigh2=32MiB,dafhigh3=32MiB,dafhigh4=32MiB,dafstd1=13MiB,
dafstd2=13MiB,dafstd3=13MiB,dafstd4=13MiB,dafmed1=9MiB,dafmed2=9MiB,dafmed3=9MiB,
dafmed4=9MiB,daflow1=5MiB,daflow2=5MiB,daflow3=5MiB,daflow4=5MiB,hafhigh1=36MiB,
hafhigh2=36MiB,hafstd1=15MiB,hafstd2=15MiB,hafmed1=11MiB,hafmed2=11MiB,haflow1=5MiB,
haflow2=5MiB,hlsaacstd1=14MiB,hlsaaclow1=5MiB

perhaps mode == hlsaaclow1 is the mode you seek.
