Screenrights

Copying television and radio

With a Screenrights audiovisual copying licence, your staff can copy the best educational programmes for use in the classroom - as often as they like.

A Screenrights licence lets you record anything from television (pay tv or free to air) or radio, without having to obtain permission from each of the rightsholders. You can also download AV material that has been legally made available online, including podcasts, vodcasts or programmes from the Internet. There are no limits on the amount of a program you can copy nor on the number of copies you can make. There are also no constraints on the type of program you can copy nor on the channel from which you can make the copy.

Use the latest technologies

A Screenrights licence lets you store, access and play recordings using the latest digital technologies, such as eTV, Clickview and Digital Video Commander systems. These systems also control AV content shown on interactive whiteboards and other display devices.
