Getting get_iplayer running on SRCF

Well, if you are here, congratulations - you are one of the elite of elites.

Right now, SRCF comes with ffmpeg, but not AtomicParsley. The Perl environment is also incomplete for running get_iplayer. Here is what I have to do to get my ``get_iplayer`` installation running:
(The lines started with ``#`` are comments.)

#cpanminus and Perl local::lib, for running get_iplayer
wget -O- "http://cpanmin.us" | perl - -l ~/perl5 App::cpanminus local::lib
eval `perl -I ~/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib`
echo 'eval `perl -I ~/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib`' >> ~/.profile
 
#AtomicParsley, for tagging the MP4 file.
mkdir -p ${HOME}/bin
hg clone https://bitbucket.org/wez/atomicparsley 
cd atomicparsley
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix ${HOME}
make 
make install

File size consideration

These are dumped by running ``get_iplayer –info`` on 27/Aug/2018. It might change in the future. Do note that with SRCF, you get only 1GB 1) of storage quota. So you might want to ``sshfs`` mount your output directory.
