iPlayer Downloader

Terrific stuff. Keep kicking Auntie. She deserves it! Donation in support on its way.

iPlayer Downloader phones home to Google Analytics. The only reason to do so to my knowledge is to allow Google surveillance of my computer behavior. If your app is going to surveil my computer use, then ASK MY PERMISSION FIRST, DAMMIT. I have used my reverse firewall Little Snitch to deny iPlayer Downloader access to Google Analytics forever. I suggest other folks with reverse firewalls consider doing the same.

When it worked... This and iPlayer Grabber both worked very well though I liked iPlayer Downloader a bit better. Grabber is now abandoned (though open source) and I get the same errors everyone else is reporting. :-( However, the "Get iPlayer Automator" someone else mentioned worked perfectly! If iPlayer Grabber gets updated and can again work with the BBC, I'll switch back as I like the interface better.

I have been able to download Doctor Who episodes from season 6 using iPlayer, though it has not been without frustration. Downloads will occasionally completely fail, however, if I wait a couple days, the download will be successful. The quality of the downloads has varied from near HQ to very poor with many visual artifacts. I have simply tried again and been successful occasionally on downloading the second time. Though there are frustrations, I am in the USA, not the UK, so I will not complain much at all. I love being able to watch my favorite science fiction show, Doctor Who, without waiting for months to a year for them to become available here in the States. Thank you, iPlayer.

Only just downloaded this, but my initial impression is very positive. Downloaded an hour-long programme at the maximum speed our rural exchange can reach - much faster than iPlayer Desktop - and it the resulting mp4 file plays with no hiccup.

Just doesn't work any more. I'm guessing that the BBC have updated their security to stop this software from working. It used to work and I loved it, was a great bit of software. Meant I didn't have to rush to watch programs before they expire.

Guys - I would really, really like to continue downloading Radio 4 programmes .... (don't judge me) - but this software just wont do it any more, or is it my operator error? Please advise - I have loved this app and want it to keep delivering, thanks

Really happy with this, but i just have one problem. I only use it to listen to radio shows. I have downloaded the .aac file, but i can not add the file to itunes. I changed the file to a .m4a and i still am unable to add the file to itunes. PLease help, am i doing something wrong?

This product is Great, with a few minor phobias. I have been using it for well over six month and it has gone from strength to strength. Some have found it now download FLV fils-yes but once downloaded they are coverted to MP4. It even now downloads higher quality files so it is almost HD download. Takes a while. The minor One majoe) hickup. It occasionally stops downloading for no obvious reason. You are left with the FLV files. I found that if you down load again it continues on from where it stopped and completes with the Mp4 file when complete. Two problems 1. I started a down load and it stopped and will not download again-DESERTS. 2. If yiou start too many conseq downloads it nearly always fails on some which require re-downloading...
