can anyone in the UK watch live tv on BBC iplayer with the SGP 5.0?
I get audio but no video, I have lowered the qaulity to let it stream faster, and killed all apps in the background to maximise RAM. But, still no joy! Was wondering if it needs a certain amount of RAM for it to wor., I can't find any info on the bbc site, appart from 2.2 and flash player 10.

help,

Hi,
I have the same problem with Iplayer live, and it's been like that since i've had it. So it does appear there's a funny with the SGP 5.0 as my wife's Galaxy 2 is fine.

I did somehow manage to get video today but when i checked with live TV it was somehow playing a different episode of the same program. Once i'd tried a different channel it was back to audio only?

Lets hope BBC investigate soon

Bob
