Should I choose Real Player, QuickTime or Windows Media Player (WMP) for downloaded programmes?
BBC iPlayer Desktop downloads
Our primary download option requires that you install and play programmes with BBC iPlayer Desktop as the technology we use is not compatible with any other media player.
Windows Media Player and Portable device downloads
We recommend that you use the latest version of Windows Media Player.
If you don't have Windows Media Player version 11 you can download it free of charge from Microsoft.
