First: Thank you very much for providing Get_iPlayer - it is appreciated :)

Downloaded and upgraded from V2.94. Discovered the default download quality was now 320kb/s so, as I only download radio programmes, added the line "radiomode radiogood" to the options file which solved that.

Previous versions of Get_iPlayer have downloaded at a decent speed - about 30s to 60s to download 45m of audio however V3 is taking around 25 minutes to do the same and is showing a download speed around 0.3Mb/s. Sometimes the download is fast for the first few megabytes but then slows considerably. Other times it's slow from the start.

I'm using a broadband connection and have no other speed issues. http://speedof.me/ shows download/upload speeds of 12.31/0.9Mbps which is consistent with my internet plan.

This is my options file:

Any ideas?

I'm going to close this thread since issues of download speed are strictly off-topic - see forum rules. However, a few suggestions:

• Upgrade to 3.01. 3.00 is no longer supported
  
• Use the ffmpeg provided. The ancient version you have configured is not supported here.
  
• Read the support notes section in the 3.00 release notes. EDIT: and the options list entry for --exclude-supplier
