 Hi Dave 

 Unfortunately, I can't assess much of your posted log, 
as after line 

INFO: Trying pid: p057mnc6 using type: tv

everything's mangled by Avast...
You could increase verbosity and perhaps try 

get_iplayer --type=tv --pid=p057mnc6 -i -v > GiP_log.txt 2>&1 

and then try to see what's happening (?)

But it's just better to upgrade anyway... 
1. Back up your XP compatible ffmpeg.exe
2. Upgrade your GiP from 3.00 to 3.02; 
it's highly possible a bug in 3.00 is the cause 
of your issue... 
3. Once the installer has finished (hopefully 
without issues), rename/delete the ffmpeg.exe 
(v3.2.4) put in place by the installer and 
then restore in that same folder your 
previous ffmpeg.exe (v3.0 ?). 

Then try again the fetch with GiP 3.02... 

Hope this fixes it...
