403 Errors in obsolete get_iplayer

Just had this set of errors

Code:

I saw that a similar issue was fixed in the last release but suddenly started getting this today and thought I should report it, the result still seems to have downloaded but it still reports the error sometimes.

Now running new version 3.23.0-MSWin32 with many many thanks. Looks like you've done a good job of supressing the 403 messages as well as dealing with messy new sound bitrates, but here's another example of a "Failed to download" that got through. This time accompanied by a 504 Bad Gateway message. No idea whether this is a real server fault, or brought about by the underlying '403' issue and therefore pointing at an URL which no longer works properly.

i.e. the programme downloaded successfully but on the second attempt.

Reported, should you want to pursue it; but as the message suggests I'll ignore similar errors in future.

That is most likely to be a network error somewhere along the line. It could even be that your internet connection had a bit of a blip. You could probably try to run that download again error free if you wanted. The playlist that it struggled with seems to be working fine when I just tried it :)

Hello

2 things, firstly i get a lot of the 403 failed to download errors, and secondly, I keep trying to download Jo Swinson's Andrew Neil interview, but it keeps saying it is already in the history, but I've cleared the history, and tried to re download, but it won't let me. What is the code to overwrite a programme, so you can download it again?

Thanks

David
