Have downloaded the ELO concert from the BBC website and using the iplayer for playback,it says 6 days left to watch.
Will I not be able to play it after the 6 days even though the download is on my PC in .mp4 format?

I imagine not, I'm not sure how it works but iPlayer downloads have always been time limited. Although I did think that they had recently extended the time from 1 week to 4 weeks, but perhaps it's either not started yet or it doesn't apply to everything.0

agrinnall you are correct, with the BBC iPlayer when you download to it it gives you 4 weeks to watch BUT if you click onto it {even for a couple of seconds}to start the program off it will then revert to only 6 days to watch from that day.0

Than for all your input,the iplayer you mention above is this an alternative to the BBC one and does not have any Time Limitations?0 -

It's legal AT THE MOMENT.
I just hope that BBC executives don't read this Thread...I think this job really needs
a much bigger hammer.

I have used 'freemake video converter'
http://filehippo.com/download_freemake_video_converter
Put the url in the box at the top and the destination file in the box below and it will D/L it to your PC
Not sure if that's 'legal' or not!
