    Hi, it depends on where you'd like to play the video files. Some video presets are offered for editing or playing on some devices/software.

    My mistake.  In Windows meadi player the "Organise" - "Privacy" tab - "Download usage rights automatically I play or sync a file" was not ticked.  Once I ticked the box everything worked fine.

    Hi, David, where did you play the WMV files? Using the player in Aimersoft DRM Media Converter???

    I agree even with the .wmv files it has failed, often coming up with the error that "you do not have the right to play this file"

    This program can only deal with BBC iPlayer WMV videos. For the DRM-ed MP4 BBC iPlayer videos, you can use its Video Converter Ultimate to record the videos so as the keep them forever.

    Can't get this to work. It dosn't show in video/audio when playing in the window. When converting it says "done" but no output file is generated.
