BBC News videos not playing
 

I reflashed my N900 this week so don't know if I need to download more codecs or plugins, but trying to view any BBC video on http://news.bbc.co.uk or watch the news channel does not work. The black square turns to a picture and I get the swirling dots but that it it.

I can view video on sites like Guardian however.

Can anyone help please? I am on Vodafone but cannot check if they started to block this in the UK as I am not near a wifi spot now. This used to work before I flashed my phone, this was as recently as a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks

I have the same thing happening with BBC videos, but I thought it was maybe they'd moved to Flash version 10... so I just forgot about it. I don't think it's a connection issue as other sites play fine. However, it may be something else entirely so Im interested to see where the thread goes :)

Also I have tried the BBC iPlayer, it will load and play the intro logo (ie BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Three), but then when the logo stops and the programme starts to load it just sticks on the logo. I can hear sound but no picture at all.

Is anyone else getting this on the iPlayer?

Anyone at all? Surely others have noticed none of the BBC videos work on the N900 lately?

bbc videos have never worked on any of the nokia devices ive owned, so its nothing new to me

They have previously worked on the N900 though, the iPlayer and BBC streaming news channel worked fine up until very recently.

I can confirm the problem. Like LaptopU I happened to have re-flashed yesterday and went to the beeb site to test Flash. The static preview comes up but the timer spins endlessly. Flash on other sites works fine.

I've also got this problem, though I reflashed when PR1.2 came out and I'm sure bbc vid's were working then.... emails to the beeb me thinks.

update: Checked out the Glastonbury bbc site and managed to watch Muse, albeit with slightly stuttering playback. Only BBC news affected?

They previously worked for me, but no longer do. Radio streams work on iplayer though.

This phones seems to become more and more useless.
