Dave got the beebPlayer app working OK on Android. Until the BBC reversed
the stated position and got it banned. Shouldn't be too hard...

It is the reversal in position without any public notification that I find
distasteful. Web pages get deleted and the policy changes, but no

Was BeebPlayer actually banned by the BBC then? I was trying to get
the story on why it suddenly vanished. What could the issue possibly

While the method below is still working fine - it remains a bit of a pain to
use.
Any chance that someone in BBC could make the change that I suggested nearly a
month ago - namely to add the iPad as an
alias for the iPhone (user-agent strings below).
If BBC makes special format for iPad in the

I’m not convinced that “rule” is applied remotely consistently, in either

Ah - good idea.
I guess that means that the Apple webkit is statically linked - so it picks up

Just tried it by using the iPhone Facebook app - and became a fan of one of
the BBC iPlayer pages ... which has a link
in the info section. Worked well.
