but I was able to log in to mobile.tvcatchup.com before, when you first mentioned it in another thread. I have a feeling it will work for most people who have an old tvcatchup username without having to sign up for the beta again.

the iphone and mobile site seem to behave exactly the same for me. They both launch the media player and they both fail to play because of the format of the playlist that media player doesn't understand, but mplayer does. Somebody kindly posted a link to a thread where somebody made the iphone page launch into mplayer with a script instead.
