Downloaded a programme but it won't play!!

Gingernutty

Hello.

I have installed BBC iPlayer Downloads and have downloaded a series of programmes from over Christmas to watch.

Most run fine.

However.....

There's the odd programme (the last episode of Ripper Street!! :mad:) that won't play.

I've gone through the faff of downloading them, they appear in the list of programmes with a date to watch them by but when I do go to play them - nothing.

Just a black screen.

The irritating thing is, when I click out of the viewing screen and go back to the list of downloaded programmes, it tells me that I've now got 7 days to watch the programme - as if I had played it, got part way through and closed it.

I can even find the subtitles in the BBC iPlayer folder!!

But it won't play!!

I've re-installed BBC iPlayer Downloads which has 'repaired' the program and still nothing.

The BBC's own website tells viewers to download the programmes again - but I can't!! :mad:

It's irritating. I know the programme/program is there but it will not play!

Can anyone shed any light/help me?

Can't help with your problem but you can watch all episodes of Ripper Street here

Some hosts have better streams ( Putlocker and Sockshare are usually fine ).

Delete iplayer, clear your cache, reboot. Reinstall iplayer, download the program again.

Google get-iplayer.. Maybe a better option.
