i get bbc iplayer open and loading and every time my phone shuts down the web?
I wonder if it would be possible to access the streams designed for the iPhone with CorePlayer (or another client)?
I suppose that to see the streams on the webpage, you would need to be able to change the HTTP UserAgent field to look like an iPhone. I don't know if that's possible with the built in web-browser.
I just went to Iplayer using Opera mini on N95-1 (latest firmware) and it says
"sorry this program is only available to play in the UK"
Opera Mini works through a proxy. It looks like it isn't located in the UK.

Does anyone else think its disgusting that the BBC is spending the licence fee to make a version of the iPlayer that is only accessible to the 200,000 - 300,000 iPhone owners in the UK?
I have done business with BBC Interactive in the past and they have always been fixated on Apple but this seems strikes me as some Apple fan boy wasting a load of public money.
I dunno if anyone knew but they're field testing the iPlayer for the Nintendo Wii. I've just tried it and, although the video frame rates weren't brilliant, they worked.
Next stop... N95!
Does anybody know what technology the Wii version uses? Not Flash, obviously.

What dya mean? It has flash built into it's Internet Channel.

Turns out it's Flash 7, which the Wii has.
"All of this Wii-playing is made possible by the Wii having a Macromedia Flash 7 player on-board. Flash 7 uses Sorenson Spark codec rather than the ON2 VP6 codec introduced with Flash 8.
The BBC has taken it upon themselves to encode and extra 400 hours of video per week into Flash 7 format, letting the Wii have access.
It�s of note that the lower performance of the Sorenson CoDec requires the video to be encoded at a higher rate to match the viewing quality of Flash 8. Brought down to numbers, this means Flash 7 video is encoded at 820kbps, rather than the usual 500 kbps."

Figures, because it keeps stalling on my "up to 8Mb/s" (HAH HAH!) ADSL.
