Although using ffmpeg is a brilliant solution when programs can be grabbed without error, I've had no luck getting complete programs on 2 of the 4 programs I've tried it with - notably the women's gold medal hockey game and the ladies figure skating short program. Also, my trusty old workarounds, the -ss and -t switch, don't seem to work at all with this way of using ffmpeg.

I've found that using DownloadThemAll in conjuction with AdobeHDS.php I can get pretty good sized chunks of a program and join and mux the good segments with a perfect result, but I'm having a heckuva time trying to identify the problem fragments that consistently cause AdobeHDS.php to abort with a "Unknown packet type 58 (sometimes 54) encountered! Unable to proceed." error.

I would really appreciate any thoughts or ideas anyone has on this.
