Yes I think I get the first recording ended "pop-up" about exactly halfway
through the recording which makes sense with the information above.
Pressing rewind and then play lets it continue probably until 3/4's of the
recording have played and then again another couple of times until the
actual end of the recording.

So is this an issue with FFMPEG or is it something the BBC need to fix?
