Can anyone tell me what information about the system Get_Iplayer sends out, such as a user agent string. If it does use a UA string, is it possible to edit the string?

I've now established that Get_Iplayer does indeed send out a UA string:

The second part of the question remains, how can I edit this string? I can't find a preference file that contains the string. Can I create a preference that will overrule the string?

Not configurable - no need for it. User agent strings are hard-coded in the script.
