Default BBC IPlayer and windows Media player problem

downloaded all the stuff yesterday and tried to download the NW200 stuff, however when I clicked it I got a message saying there was a DRM error in Windows Media Player and click to open support.

Can't seem to find the fix and there is no specific error code to quote.

Tis a tad annoying, anyone else have this, or know the fix?

Does the account you're using have admin rights on the PC? If not, try using one that does.

It's a common error and there are some fixes on their (and 4od as it's almost the same software) website.
Didn't work for me, both sites let me see a couple of programmes and then stopped working.

I just strip the DRM out - Linky.

I can then watch it whenever and however I like.
