Already fixed.

Dear Sergey M.,
With all respect, sir, this issue first occurred only two days ago. Prior
to now, I successfully downloaded BBC HD streaming using youtube-dl with
rtmpdump. Acouple of years ago, there was a problem with BBC servers, but
this is something malfunctioning in Python. I believe the BBC has changed
something in streaming, as I detected f4f files. I have also tried
downloading with HDS Link Detector using a PHP compiler. This works for
many flash movies, but never for BBC. Any attention to fixing this would be
appreciated. Please inform if there's anything else that could be helpful.
Don't take my word for this, as I am not knowledgeable about coding, but
please try it for yourself from a Geolocation in the UK.

Thank-you

As already said it's fixed and will be available in the next version. You could easily find out this yourself if bother with searching through closed issues.

Sergey,
Thank-you for your hard work on this project. It is the only remaining
working method I have for downloading BBC (and several others). In past
there were others.
Should I contribute directly to you via PayPal? If so, please tell me how.
I am new to github.
