[Bug 1210314] Re: get-flash-videos failing to download some BBC news videos (possibly other BBC videos too)

 

Can confirm Pigeon's findings. However, there are several variations of BBC pages, seemingly based on 
1) If you are seen to be connecting from UK ip address
2) Age of the BBC webpage.

giving variations with a href, param and .xml and .sxml.
I've tweaked pigeon's code by adding one more variation I've encountered

  elsif ($browser->content =~ /(http:[^":]+?playlist\.s?xml)/) {
    $playlist_xml = $1;
    $playlist_xml =~ s/\\//g;
  }

Think this is an upstream issue; have also reported my findings on
