Downloading a Show from PEGMedia

Last Updated:September 30, 2026

This guide covers getting a single episode from PEGMedia — whether it's free with your community membership, sponsored by the producer, or a paid purchase — and how the download queue works.

Before you start

  • You'll need a PEGMedia account. Community members can download all content for free.

  • If you're not a member of a community, some content may require a purchase. In that case, you'll need a balance on your account.

1. Open the episode

On pegmedia.org, browse or search for the content you want and open an episode.

2. Choose how to get it

The download button reflects what the episode costs you:

  • Get it free — the episode is free with your community membership or if sponsored by the producer.

  • Purchase & download — if you're not a member of a community, the episode has a cost; you'll confirm the purchase first.

  • Add funds to purchase — if you're not a member of a community, you need to add to your balance before buying.

  • Download now — you already have it; download it directly.

Episode page with the download panel highlighted. It shows the episode as Free with a community membership, a 1.24 GB HD file, and Download now and Add to Download Queue buttons.

If a purchase is required, click Purchase Video, review the details, and click Confirm Purchase.

3. Add it to your download queue

Click Add to Download Queue. The item is added to your queue, ready to download. (You can remove it again with Remove from Queue.)

Episode page with a red arrow pointing to the Add to Download Queue button, below the Download now button.

4. Get your content from the queue

Open your Download Queue to see everything you've queued. You can download items from here directly, or — much easier — let the PEGMedia Desktop app pull them down for you automatically.

Account menu open from the profile icon, with Download Queue highlighted. The email and account balance are blurred.
