How do I watch bbc iPlayer?

[Class--81]

Hi Folks, I asked ages ago why I couldnt watch channel 4 4OD and was told it was due to DRM but I thought www.bbc.co.uk and the iplayer didnt use flash or DRM. Is there anyway to watch the news clips on bbc.co.uk and iPlayer using Vivaldi? Thanks Class--

No problem here. You just need the right Flash pluginin

Opera, Chromium-based browsers - PPAPI

Ahh, I obviously had the wrong flash installed. I use Firefox as default and had just clicked download when I should have clicked "Need Flash Player for different computer?" and selected Opera and Chromium - PPAPI

Thanks Pesala

Hi. It's true: Not all videos format runing.

The FlashPlayer tests go well. But many videos cannot see.

Give us a link with the correct plugin you say

Thanks in advance.

Get the PPAPI plugins (Don’t install the PUPs)

Our general problems would infinitely be solved if everyone would just step away from Flash and onto better things - and one would think the BBC would be smarter than that. Sadly, I doubt that's going to happen any time soon. I had similar troubles when I switched to Vivaldi as I didn't have the PPAPI version installed - I'd let the version that came with my old Masters Collection go and strangely it's not as fantastic.

I do sort of which that they'd make PPAPI more of an up front option as well, or at least more of a "Hey, if you're having trouble, you should select this instead", without people having to go to Google or a forum to find out.
