Download a series

there are many reason not to do so... i think one of the main reasons is it will causing huge bandwidth usage and may affect the other who watch online also... imagine each series at least 10 episodes and each episode about 40-50MB, it's about 500MB just for one person, if more than 10 persons download, it will cause a lot, how about 20 or 30 episode series...

i think you may try to use other browsers to watch it online.. it's smooth and save a lot of your disk space also..

Yeah, i'm certain the "series download" option was removed due to bandwidth issues.

Providing the ability to download singular episodes is still fine, as you would normally just download an episode, or a few episodes for things like when you're commuting and want to fill time in etc. Plus, browsers such as Chrome, often restrict the amount of resources downloadable to only 5 at a time from the same network.

Your best bet will be figuring out why you can't play the videos? Is it your internet connection? Browser causing the issues? Or it could be Vimeo? Either way, attempting to diagnose this would be ideal.

If its a work computer, perhaps it's restricted to streaming (if that's possible) or blocked to video providers like Youtube / Vimeo etc.

The videos appear to be hosted on Vimeo, so bandwidth shouldn't be an issue in and of itself, but having worked with it in the past, it doesn't really give the option to download multiple videos in one go in that way.

Many thanks all - I have figured out the why on my machine (Win 10 N). Rather than install the Media Feature pack (which causes problems every time M$ release a new Win 10 Feature Update), I've been using a Hyper-V VM that I otherwise use only for remote management of our servers (gotta love that "IPMI only works on IE 7 and Java 6"...) to watch the videos without issue (at work).
