Hi, yes when paeople talk about Iplayer they mean the BBC version. The ITV
version is called ITV Player, Channel 4 is 4OD and Channel 5 is Demand 5 I
think. The BBC Iplayer does let you download programmes. Just search for
download on the programme page and there is a link. You can’t seem to do it
with audio described programmes yet though.

Hi Peter
I am a bit confused about Iplayer, this is the BBC Iplayer is it not?
Also when people talk of "downloading" programs do they really mean that or do
they mean streaming?
I would love to download some of the programs to listen to on my long train
journey to work.
Rex

I’ve just used that part of Web IE for the first time today. Works very well.
The only thing I found was that not all programmes started automatically or
some took longer than others to play. Only mentioning it because on Iplayer
itself I find programmes start to play within a second or two that I press play
as I have very fast internet.

Hello all.
I am concerned with the BBC iPlayer service. I currently rely on this
until I get a television and a digital box.
It would appear that the BBC audio describe almost every single live
program. It also appears that this is not the case on iPlayer. Please,
why is this, because I don't think it's fair for those who rely on
iPlayer or simply enjoy catching up for some reason.
Take care and sorry for the rant.
