BBC iplayer

[R1Geezer]

Anyone know how you can save the program to a DVD?

BBC iPlayer content is protected by DRM (digital rights management) and that is what stops you from keeping the content forever or converting to another format. It's not impossible as I have seen stuff online that was ripped from iPlayer but as of yet, I've been unable to do so. :-(

I have downloaded a couple of programs with it.

Credits to Paul Battley for his developement of iPlayer downloader. Bear in mind the downloaded content is on par with VCD quality but better than nothing.

Stealing from the BBC Geezer?

And I thought you were such a law and order man!

Not stealing jake, I have a friend who missed an episode of strictly and she's such a technophobe I figured it would be easier if I put the episode on a CD rather than trying to explain how to use Iplayer. You are correct though I don't normally do this sort of thing.
