bbciplayer sucks read this everyone
i got bbc iplayer on 15jan2008, it only works on ie browsers not firefox...ie from microsoft sucks. its often impossible to download a show i want i get told servers busy..this is often the case for 2 full days..by the time i start downloading a damn bbc show by the time ive got it the next programme in a series has already been on tv so i end up having to record the whole series !!! i have a �3k dell pc quadcore 10.5ghz cpu....about as fast as money will buy 4gb ram yet bbc iplayer has the ability to bring this high tech pc to its knees... while downloading a bbc show i often listen to a cd..yet the sound gets badly distorted as iplayer nukes the cpu...bbc youve really messed up big time. also i hear fairuse4wm software can remove drm..digital rights from files..therefore making the expiry date go away...unfortuantly this doesnt work on vista which i have so often a file ive taken many hours to download expires before ive even had a chance to view it.. ARGGGGHHH !!! i hate the bbc. bbc MUST allow us to have drm free files otherwise why should we pay our tv licences if your not allowing us to view what you make with OUR MONEY ????????????? also when you do get files the save location doesnt name the files !!! so its a wild goose chase to find the show you want to view...bbc sort this terrible mess out asap. also ive had to repair the install of oplayer about 30 times so far..not good enough www.newhomeplanet.blogspot.com may have more info of use. pps even more hassle if you use peerguardian2 from phoenixlabs.org to protect your internet privacy if forced to use p2p to get files, ive had to allow about 30 different ip addresses the bbc uses so i can get files to download at a reasonable speed..yet the bbc provide no info on how to configure pg2 i worked it out myself. feel free any1 to comment on bbc iplayer by clicking the comments button below this article
