Excellent program. Is it possible to set a default so that all TV programmes are recorded as avi files?
Thanks

No. You'll need to re-mux the files yourself. You could create a batch file to do the re-mux and invoke with , but it would be a lot easier to use one of the many available video converter applications to re-mux.

I've assumed a simple re-mux will suffice, but if you need AVI because you have a hardware player that can't handle MP4, be sure to check that it supports the H.264 video and AAC audio used by BBC. You may need to do some transcoding as well (e.g., to MP3 audio).

In either case, you may want to use the option with get_iplayer to skip re-muxing the downloaded FLV file to MP4 altogether. You should be able re-mux/transcode from FLV to AVI.

Thanks very useful
