Hi all

Is there a way to download and save a clip off BBC iplayer and put it on disc, without buying software preferably ?
Anyone had success or got any proven technique please ?

Thank you

All truth goes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Then, it is violently opposed. Finally, it is accepted as self-evident.

    Yes, but it depends which 'clip'.

    Netxfer will do it.
    [greenhighlight]but it matters when the most senior politician in the land is happy to use language and examples that are simply not true.

    The impact of this is to stigmatise people on benefits,
    and we should be deeply worried about that    [/redtitle](house of lords debate, talking about Cameron)
