NPVR playing DRM content

[mark_lt]

Hi,

I think the answer to my question is no, but I thought I would ask anyway.

Can NPVR play DRM content such as that downloaded by BBC iPlayer?

I want to be able to play it by just navigating to it from Video Library, rather than having to use Media Player. I know you can go the Get Iplayer route, but I do not want to strip the DRM. I just want to be able to play it from within NPVR.

Also, I suppose of interest, is whether it can play other DRM content (not just the stuff from BBC Iplayer)?

Thanks
Mark

NPVR doesnt know anything about DRM. For anything other than .ts and .mpg files, NPVR just askes Directshow to take care of playback. I'm guessing your files are not .ts or .mpg files, so it's pretty much up to Directshow whether these DRM files play or not. I dont know.

Thanks Sub. WMV or MP4. It seems the DRM is through Adobe Air DRM, so I think it may be a plugin into Media Player. That means I have to embrace evil to watch it on my PC (MS Media Player). Pity, NPVR makes it easy for the whole family to use it.

Thanks for the quick response though.
