I'm not sure if it is the same for all the BBC shows, but I can download a mp4 file that only seems to play in the BBC iPlayer.
There are also options to download a wmv file. They contain DRM unfortunately. And even though WMV = Microsoft, DRM = Microsoft and XBox360 = Microsoft, I'm not aware of how I can get it to play on the XBox360. Grrrr. I could possibly try streaming from my notebook to the XBox360 but haven't tried that yet. I note that the BBC iPlayer can be downloaded for Playstation3 or Wii but not XBox360. Double Grrrr.
Anyway I download the wmv version and then use the Daniusoft Digital Media Converter to create a non-DRM WMV file. I can then pop it on a USB stick and play it on the XBox360. |
This is a obviously a spam message from
Daniusoft. The was no problem removing DRM from WMV files when they were offered using freeware lossless software. The question was about removing DRM from MP4 files.
There are better
DRM removal programs than Daniusoft Digital Media Converter. But I recommend to re-record BBC iPlayer videos with
screen video capture software. Such programs can record any video from your screen, so it doesn't really matter what format BBC iPlayer uses (Windows Media .WMV, Flash Video .MP4 or any other video format)
