I tried one link at a time, then 3 at a time, and I'm pleased to confirm they have all worked ok this time. >:D<

Hopefully this was an isolated problem with the BBC website and nothing at all to do with FDR (version of program and plugins have not changed).

Best wishes,

Ok, the problem is not consistent. I've just started the first link and it is already passed the point it got to yesterday.

I'll see if it completes and report back. I'm wondering if the problem happens if you have more than one link on the go at the same time, so will try this next.

Thanks again.

Thanks for the reply. I'll try downloading both links again and confirm if its consistent.

Does it always download the same length of the same video?

Also, does the percentage jump from somewhere to 100% when the download stops?

I can't debug this myself really as they only allow their videos to be viewed in the UK.

FRD version : 0.85u1-b566
plugin version : 1.0.6

The .flv files download and show as 100% complete in FRD, but so far none of the links I've tried are genuinely finished.

Example 1 : only downloaded 2:15 out of 29:00.

Example 2 : downloaded 14:28 out of 1:00:00.

Hope this can be fixed.

Best wishes,
