I note with interest that you are, if you so choose, limited to 350 characters when making reports about the iPlayer on the Beta.
Is 2.5 tweets EVER going to be enough to report anything useful? All I was trying to post was a moan about the inconstant interface. The below is apparently 3.5 times too long for a "complaint". *The new iPlayer system has two different types of action for exactly the same user action.* *Click on a picture, sometimes you get a same-screen change to a page with a large picture and full description of the content, leaving alone any existing playing content.* *Some other times EXACTLY the same action results in a pop-up that starts playing the content straight away, stopping any existing content - and offering no easy way back** - even the "back button" is disabled* * (You have to find the "main" iPlayer window, switch to radio and click the "favourites" button, and then click on "last played", obvious!).* *Yes, it is radio that auto-plays in a pop-up - this is the only way to click though to find out the information about a radio programme, even if it is just to see if you have already listened to it...* *This is at the MOST confusing in the combined (TV+radio) search lists, where the action performed by clicking on an image is hard to determine - only a very small icon acts as a warning to the two forms of action.* *Would it be possible once again for the user to choose if they want a small pop-up radio console and supply a consistent click action as a default?* -- Brian Butterworth follow me on twitter: http://twitter.com/briantist web: http://www.ukfree.tv - independent digital television and switchover advice, since 2002
