Help Anyone in UK having iPlayer problems?

[funkylogik]

Hey any of my UK peeps tried BBC iPlayer on their opo?
Does it play programmes ok?
On mine it plays for like a second then goes all blurred.
Just wondering if it's an opo issue or not.
Cheers

Haven't managed to find a lollipop rom that works with iPlayer yet... will play fine for a min and then as soon as the on screen controlls vanish, the screen goes black (apart from Oxygen when it goes blury like the lock screen).

Oddly this only happens with streamed programs. If you download them things seem to play back fine.

Cool cool mate cheers.
So when you download a program does it play through your chosen video player or through BBC media player?
(trying to narrow down if it's iPlayer that's the problem or BBC media player... When i ask a program to download it just says "pending" or something and never downloads)
EDIT just realised it only downloads over wifi. Wtf man..i dont have wifi but have unlimited data!! That pisses me off.
Nearly as bad as Demand 5 which will only stream over wifi... A MOBILE app that only works with wifi lol *rant over

Found a nice work-around from a reviewer on Play.
Dolphin browser, settings, advanced, user agent, iPhone, then the iPlayer mobile site works.
Time to catch up on The Detectives (excellent stuff man)

Completely coincidentally I happened to open Iplayer today, and its working fine on the latest build of Euphoria, which is a 5.1 rom... just thought i'd mention it.

Cool cheers mate. Must be a cyanogen OS 5.0.2 issue
I recently bought a cheap Android TV stick anyway so problem solved (until I wanna watch in bed lol).
The dolphin work around works fine on the OPO though.
Only issue I'm having with the Android stick is that All4 and Demand5 claim it's rooted (it definitely isn't lol), even their websites won't work. Still looking for a work around for that.
Anyway off topic sorry peeps
