Try this patch below. BBC have started using limelight to deliver live
feeds as well as akamai. get_iplayer was not correctly setting the
'live' flag for rtmpdump/flvstreamer.

BTW: Would it be a good idea to do a 2.79 release soon? Ubuntu for one
don't seem to have a fully working get_iplayer since they only use the
tagged git releases.
