I assume you need to go to the iView player, and that it can capture the show as it begins to play - not forcing you to wait while the 30 minutes or so is shown?
So I just use my web browser, I use Firefox, but Chrome also works, and I go to the iview page, navigate to the program I want to watch and when the program starts playing a download button appears usually at the top right hand corner of the picture - I can then select the resolution I want to download it at, and off it goes. At that point, I stop the main display and usually the program then comes down at the full speed of my connection which is around 8-9Mbit.

IDM installs an extension in the browser which monitors download clicks and embedded media allowing you to download not only iview but streaming media content from most sources.

Cheers.
