BBC iplayer / PCLinux
tickmike:
I have been trying to get this BBC iplayer to work in PCLos. >:D
Downloaded the latest FireFox 2.0.0.11.
Downloaded Realplayer 10.5 both via synaptic .
I went to http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/ clicked on Radio picked something to try, opened in another window and says it wants a plugin ! :o cannot download one.
FireFox said it has Realplayer 9 Plugin ? !
Eric said in another post "It works" was that with PCLos ?.if so how did you get it to work ?
roseway:
It works fine on this Debian system, but I don't user RealPlayer, I use the Flash plugin. On this system the package is called flashplayer-mozilla, but it may be called something different in PCLinuxOS.
setecio:
Yep, I get the same 'pluggin required' message for radio in Puppy Linux with Opera 9.24 and flash 9.
The TV/video repeats work fine, but the screen blanks after 2.5 minutes.
I can't work it out.
roseway:
Oh yes, sorry I missed the bit about radio. That does work here, but I use the 'Windows media' option, not the RealPlayer option. For this to work you have to have a package called w32codecs (or win32codecs) installed.

Re...w32codecs (or win32codecs), Do you get them though synaptic ? or ?
The video side works but there is no sound. (but if I get the radio side working I think it will be ok).
