What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start downloading a video
2. Lose connectivity, in my case high packet loss (or just disconnect from 
network)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

... .mp4: 11% (30428.13 / 273228.73 KiB)read timeout at 
/usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/LWP/Protocol/http.pm line 452.
Done. Saved 31181571 bytes to ...

% echo $?
0

It should return 1 as it has failed to download the whole file. I would like to 
wrap it in a script to run the command again to continue the download until it 
returns 0. Currently a script cannot determine if it has completed or failed.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

20121106. Arch Linux.

I use this in a script (/bin/ksh) on OpenBSD

get_flash_videos ${itvweb} &&  ( echo ${fn}>>itv.lst; echo $itvpid>>itvpid.lst )

It keep a history of downloads, works for me with ITV. 

From the error it suggest a http rather than a rtmpdump download. The problem 
is related to the site your downloading from. Extra details are required, that 
includes the version of get_flash_videos, an example url or urls your 
downloading from.

Sorry I don't think you have understood. The issue is not that a download gets 
cut off, but the software returns 0 (success) rather than 1 (failure).
