Re: [backstage] [ORG-discuss] DRM Free BBC Content on GNU/Linux (Ubuntu)
I have been using this service on & off for the past month with Totem plugin in Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex. Its great having all the podcasts, however does anyone know when the news stories will have the correct video attached and not the video of the Channel Tunnel being closed. Shame the Dirac testing stream video has gone, that was a great example of high quality video streaming and a decent cartoon.

Totem appears to be getting its (RDF) metadata from the BBC directly via the URL: http://open.bbc.co.uk/rad/uriplay/availablecontent ... so anything that can process that or do anything sensible with it should also be able to partake. (As the URL suggests, it looks like its under Rapid Application Development so I'd expect it could change at any point in the future. But this looks like wonderful progress from the BBC.)
