Running With Scissors Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Unofficial BBC iPlayer Mac downloader A program enabling Mac users to download shows from the iPlayer has appeared on the internet. This application is not made by the BBC and downloads content in to DRM Free quicktime format. Full Article Download Application UPDATE: Just used the application it downloaded HIGNFY Uncut which is a 45 minute program in just under 7 minutes. The quality is okay, better than flash stream off the website anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suhail Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 This program is quite cool, It spoofs the Mobile Version of Safari from the iPhone and downloads using that. Kudos to the developer and I'll definitely be using this application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Embio Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I saw something on Sunday morning BBC1 the other week, discussing broadband in the country and its affect on businesses. They were using the iPlayer as an example, and it showed a woman downloading shows using Safari and Tiger on a Powerbook G4, I wondered how on earth they were doing it...

withakay Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I have made a new iPlayer downloader app 'iPlayer Grabber'. It features an integrated web browser so you just need to click on the program you want to download, no messing about with copying program ID's from Safari and pasting them somewhere else. Like most other apps it uses Paul Battley's ruby script you can get it here http://fader.co.uk/post/iPlayer-Grabber-th...r-Mac-OS-X.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
