As for downloading from the iPlayer,
my experience has been that only
the main channels are put on iPlayer
and that red button streams are only
available while the live event
is being shown on a red button channel.
Not true (at least for current Olympics)
- see below...
my main interest is equestrian events.
... Then you should keep an eye on:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00cmh3v
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b00cmh3v
Download by pid (3 shows currently) or
--pid=b00cmh3v --pid-recursive.
specify --tvmode=hvfvhigh2
(In my check, hvfvhigh2 CDN was
faster than hvfvhigh1 - YMMV)
These are 5:30+ long programmes,
so beware of huge file sizes.
Happy viewing!
