Invalid HLS playlist

user-886

Any ideas how to cure this anybody?
It was working fine until last night when it partially completed a download and now will not even start. Occasionally, it has worked, but it is very rare. Not sure why.

Ignore the "Invalid HLS playlist" errors. They usually occur when an HLS playlist fails to download, which means you either have connection problems upstream or the BBC servers have problems. It doesn't matter since you are not using HLS to download. Your immediate problem is that you neglected to remove a previous partial download. If you don't do that, you'll never get past the corrupt file warning.

Thanks. It worked after that! :)
