As a test, can you* try the series 'Compass', and download the episode broadcast on 2015-04-05 (it should succeed), and also the one broadcast on 2015-04-12 (it should fail)>

Yep, as I said previously, WebDL (
http://delx.net.au/projects/webdl/) has no problem with this. Just confirmed with Apr12 Compass as requested.
I made an earlier comment about WebDL dropping frames on downloaded files. It's actually a known ffmpeg issue. WebDL pulls the video as a .ts and then calls ffmpeg to re-encode to .mp4. Disable the conversion in common.py and the .ts plays perfectly.
Like I said, I am using a pre-08Apr commit of WebDL and it's having no problems with post-08Apr content so the issue is clearly something very subtle which is tripping up napper/ripper but not WebDL. That said, I'm testing WebDL on a unix machine. Could this be down to silliness like something in the napper/ripper logic tripping over \r vs \r\n?
