Im able to play every video with the player thats on the site. I dont know what its called. Are you sure you dont have another computer on the wlan thats dragging the speed from you?

Yeh i'm sure, internet connection isn't the problem, i'm really surprised to hear you can play the iplayer tbh, i've been thinking the whole time its a common problem

I have a 8mbit connection on my wifi and im in sweden, many people here have had problems playing videos on a site called svtplay (swedish television) but that have never been a problem for me. Off course I dont have alot of alternative players useless apps etc installed. Only video related stuff I have installed is the extra decoders support

youtube works ok for me, but its the only website i can play vids from and the quality is pretty crap to be honest,
iplayer has never worked for me on n900, n95, n96, n97
its totally unwatchable, and the stuttering sound is unbearable, ive heard others say they got it working for the past few years on forums like this, but for me and all my friends it doesnt work, so ill believe it when i see it!
always tried using full speed wlan, and tried all the tricks in the book, i just dont bother anymore

I have to say I have never really had a good experience on the n900 streaming video, whether it be from BBC iplayer Youtube etc

Now I have seen the iPhone (as my Bro is a true fanboy) and everytime I have seen youtube, iplayer tvcatchup etc whether it be on wifi or 3g it has been pretty flawless

Why cant Nokia get something like this right out of the box or is it just down to some fanboys have written decent apps for it ?

Im genuinely curious not knocking Apple at all but someone on the Apple side got it right, someone on the Nokia side got it wrong
