Does anyone know if it is possible to download the F1 forum somehow or record it from the the iplayer or something, as I'd like to be able to watch it on the train on monday mornings? I've tried IPDL (from po-ru.com) but it doesn't seem to work for it..

Mods - feel free to move thus to the TV forum if you think it is better suited there.

Thanks.

Just to a laptop for now - i'll worry about converting it to a mobile format later if need be...

I know you can download certain iPlayer items to your desktop (you need to install the desktop version of iPlayer first) and keep them for up to 7 days, but I'm not sure if the F1 coverage is available for this. If it is then there should be a "click to download" option at the bottom of the screen on this page.

Does the real player add-in not work for this? (You can record anything that pretty much move on your screen in a movie format).

No, this isn't available on the iplayer page for the F1 Forum it seems...

They don't have the capability yet to put Red Button content on iPlayer (because of the way the whole playout system works). Might be available elsewhere if someone has recorded it through a TV and uploaded it.
