I'm downloading the one you are after right now, get_iplayer goes through a few attempts at various file formats (I think) and then finally settles on a realaudio version which it is apparently turning into a .wav for me as i don't have lame installed (which would create the mp3). The use of mplayer is to download the realplayer stream and convert it to mp3, so basically, it is complaining about some aspect of your (or lack of) mplayer install.
Well, normally this works (as exemplified by "The Reunion"). Doesn't seem to need mplayer (which is not installed anyway).
Or is there a bug in the version (1.03) of get_iplayer I'm using?
1.59 is available ;)

Thanks, Adam! I'll look into your suggestions. Meanwhile (for reference): Could you confirm what command you used to start the download?
Thanks, Ted.
