Hye

I have bbc iplayer desktop and can download from bbc iplayer onto that - is there any way i can download onto my computer hardrive - then transfer onto memory stick to watch on big tv ? I do this when downloading from Vuze but cannot see how to do it from bbc iplayer.

Same as itv player ????? Cannot see how to do it.

Thanks

I do believe there is a bit of software you need to convert from the BBCiPlayer format to AVI etc. but I don't have it or use it.... so can't give recommendation as to ease of use or suitability.

Don't know if it works, but I had the program on an old XP pc and must get around to re-installing it on a Win 7 pc.. it was quite user friendly

We run an HDMI cable from computer to TV... just waiting for a wireless solution to beam it from PC to TV without the cable...

ok thanks everyone. Seems as if its a no goer then. I shall carry with Vuze - onto hardrive - then memory stick and memory stick into big tv.
