This is just going to be a quick post, folks.
I’ve just had a very quick look at the revamping job the BBC has done on their much vaunted iPlayer.
Which seems to have a problem, or two …
Possibly …
It does seem to not be able to properly sync the sound and video track — based on the few minutes usage I’ve had of it — nor does it offer the option of the in-broswer pop-up window that earlier versions did.
Which is bloody handy, when you’re re-watching a show you’re posting about.
On a potential upside, though, Aunty Beeb has added the ability to sync an all new and shiny BBC iPlayer accounts: in this case I’ve added my Facebook and Twitter accounts.
It also seemed to have flagged up Terminator: The 1984 James Cameron movie.
Which I’m assuming means they’ve negotiated rights to some movies for their catch-up service.
This could be good.
Once they’ve ironed out the bugs …
