Re: [orca-list] bug with this bbc site:

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

Yes, I noticed this  quite some time ago. I use get_iplayer for almost all of my video watching. 
For those not familiar with get_iplayer it lets one see an index of available shows, audio as well as vids I 
think although I've only used it for videos 
myself. I think you can stream the programs, but I always download them. 
For those on Ubuntu and probably just about any distro with the exception of arch and friends you will need 
to get an extra ppa if available, or 
download the package's latest release as due to fairly frequent changes in how the BBC does things old 
versions do not work at all. 
Here is a ppa I found online just now for Ubuntu, but the post was almost two years old/not sure if it still 
works or not/ I'v usually installed from a 
package I downloaded on Ubuntu and related distros.
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:jon-hedgerows/get-iplayer

   sudo apt-get update

   sudo apt-get install get-iplayer
 
In case installcommand does not work try using underline instead of dash as the package has been called 
get_iplayer when I've downloaded it, can't 
remember for sure about arch naming. OK, just checked and on arch it's called get_iplayer 

This program is highly configurable, but most defaults are going to be fine for most users I think. OK 
citizens outside of the UK will need to use a 
proxy, or ssh in to a UK based computer to get video content due to the UK licensing  rules. I'm an honorary 
UK citizen aren't I? Most audio content is 
available worldwide.
In the past I've run in to problems with dependencies on Ubuntu Lucid, but Precise and newer should work.
