steve_b_wales Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 Is it possible to download a program onto a computer and then burn it onto a DVD? This question was asked in work last night, and I haven't a clue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This question was asked in work last night, and I haven't a clue. Yes but it’s complex and not worth it. The basic process involves installing a screen recording program, download (or stream) the programme in iPlayer on your computer, play it whilst recording the screen and then from within the screen capture program you save the recording as a video file. You then need to burn the video file to disc in a format that a DVD player will decipher and load automatically once you put the disc into a DVD Player. Basically it’s a ball ache and easier to buy someone an Amazon Fire TV stick so they can plug it into their TV and use iPlayer directly!

The reason the question was asked, is that there's a Welsh comedy series (High Hopes) available to view now, but only for 5 months. The series cannot be purchased on DVD. Thanks for your reply.
