Download BBC iPlayer Shows Automatically

Rather than visiting the iPlayer website to watch new episodes of your favourite shows, why not grab them automatically using the Series Record feature?

First install the BBC iPlayer Desktop software, then go to a programme page, click ‘Download options’ and choose Series Record. This will automatically download the next episode in the series and all future episodes as soon as they become available, and you’ll have 30 days to watch each one.

To stop iPlayer Desktop downloading a programme, hover your mouse over the pink download icon and choose Pause Series Record.
