Excellent thank you Tommy. When it doesn't time out it works perfectly.

I already have the latest Git of get_iplayer running but want to upgrade
rtmpdump to the git version. Not quite sure exactly how to do it, but 
I've found this...

git clone git://git.ffmpeg.org/rtmpdump

cd rtmpdump
make
sudo make install


from here

and by logical extension
git clone git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.git ffmpeg
cd ffmpeg
make
sudo make install

Will this be enough to get me there? Sorry, I'm a bit of a linux retard, 
but keen to learn these basics.
