How difficult would it be to download programmes from the BBC Iplayer on to an external hard drive, then watch them using the USB connection on the Foxsat? It would be preferable to watching on the desktop.

Welcome to the forum.

If you can record iplayer content on your PC to a file then using AV2HDR you may be able to replay it from usb on your Foxsat. I rather think drm will stop you, aren't the recordings time limited in some way ?

The Foxsat has iplayer access anyway without needing your PC.

Thank you. I had no idea that Foxsat could access the iplayer, clearly the best way forward.
