Downloading non-HD programmes

[Chris J Brady]

The new Windows package of get_iplayer apparently automatically downloads the highest resolution possible aka HD resulting in some very large files, e.g. 1.5GB. Is there a setting I can use to download smaller low-res. files - typically about 350MB? My little Acer notebook simply cannot play large HD files, and even my Toshiba Qosmio struggles. BTW I only tend to use the Windows version with the Quick URL / Record feature. Thanks - Chris B.
