    iPlayer browser problem

    France Musique is a favourite, but for some time now I have found that it will not play on my Opera Browser (v12.16), live or recouter (Listen Again) but plays OK in Internet Explorer. Any suggestions?
    Also I have found that the BBC iPlayer Listen again now omits the Pop-up player option, which I always used, so that I can have the webpage listing open underneath the popup player. And the programme picture flashes loads of times if I go back a few minutes during a programme replay. Is this progress?
    (please move this post if it's in the wrong place).

    The pop-up player is still there, but in a different position, and somewhat differently accessed. Play around with the new layout and I feel sure you will find it. The new system certainly does have a few strange quirks though.

      I think you could mention this to the Opera development team - they may be able to come up with a fix, or at least tell you what's not working. Since this is a specific issue for a specific site they should be able to replicate the behaviour.

        It plays OK on my copy on Windows 8, but I have Opera v12.17 - maybe it's worth doing an update.

          Thanks, yes, an update to 12.17 fixed it (but it still doesn't want to jump to a different time in the recouter)
          R3 Listen Again - now for 30 days - seems to jump very quickly to any point in the programme. I wonder if it now downloads all the programme at the start. If so, where is it stored on my Windows7 PC?
