spoyser, you never cease to amaze me. I can't believe you've fixed this so quickly.spoyser wrote:@gegs
Thanks for finding that, turned out to be a bug in the JogTools scroll panel libray, if you notice all the scroll panels show the same behaviour.
I have now fixed the bug and there is a new version available to download (in fact the main.swf is the only file changed)
Whatever device I use iPlayer on, it's the categories I usually access content from. The 'music', 'films' and 'children's' categories are going to be very well used in my house.
My wife is a bit of a technophobe and doesn't embrace new gadgets easily but even she would have to admit that your iPlayer program and roobarb's implementation of Squeezeplay have made our kitchen Joggler indispensable. As much as I like (and use) the linux distros, it is continued work on the stock OS that has won my wife over; she finds it much easier to use.

spoyser. Trying to upload the screen shot but it's saying it's too big ? Any ideas why this could be as you're most likely correct re the tag contentsspoyser wrote:@Utakos
To update simply install over the top of the previous version.
@nigelh
The icon in the top right (looks like a power off button), should go back.
@stephen m
Sounds like you entered the tag contents incorrectly, can you post the output of this command:
cat media/appshop/applications.xml

Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
I've just started using the app and it's fantastic!
Just one request. Is there any chance of a guide to customising /changing the radio stations (being in Scotland, I would rather have radio scotland)

Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
The app is great, but I need to feed back that the last two versions (Jun 15 update and the one prior) have given me problems with the exit/power soft button. The prior version (the one *before* when exit was top-left of the viewing screen) worked well for exiting. But the last two versions, Jun 15th and also the one prior - have given me issues with exiting TV and also iPlayer menus. The exit button just isn't appearing for me. The last version (before Jun 15th) did show the exit button - apart from after having entered full screen (couldn't get out of that at all) - so was OK. But the Jun 15th version isn't showing the exit/power button at all. What could I be doing wrong? Or has the functionality changed in some way I'm not figuring out how to use?
thanks : -) (and sorry for moaning

I've tried purging all the iPlayer files, rebooting and reinstalling - but the server appears to be offline ![Sad :-(](./images/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif)

@Ben
I have just looked in the iPlayer.cgi file and there appears to be a duplicated line in it (although it doesn't seem to affect my install), can you delete the very last line, the line that starts
.tango -w:30 -h:30
and ends &
(If there is only 1 line like this DO NOT delete it)
Then try increasing the sleep 3 to say sleep 10
This controls the delay before the close button appears, if it is too quick I suppose there is a chance it will appear below the iPlayer and therefore be unaccessible.

Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
Hi there,
I also have the issue where sometimes the close button won't appear (forcing reboot).
The description spoyser just gave sounds like it could be the culprit.
Are we able to change this setting manually in telnet, or would we need to reinstall?
Other than that, a fantastic program. Is it feasable to also get other iplayer content? Such as tv episode catchup stuff?

Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
I had the same issue with the close button and spoysers fix works a charm. Thank you.
Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
Sorted. Good work
I've even got the power/close soft button when displaying full screen (a good thing!) - so this is the first time I can exit from full screen reliably, too. Thanks! ![Smile :-)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)

Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
hmmmm, doesn't seem to be working for me.
I changed sleep to 10.
I removed the .tango -w:30 -h:30 line (at the very end - but saying that I couldn't see a 2nd line of this which was mentioned?)
I then rebooted the joggler and went straight to cbeebies.......first attempt.....no exit button in the corner.
FWIW this is editing the cgi file AFTER its been installed already....not before...if it makes any difference?
Any ideas? Maybe have to put that .tango line back in? (what does it do)

Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
problem fixed (I think)
The last line was only duplicated in the cgi file before installing (checked by downloading it on the pc). After its been installed it only has (for me at least) the one line.
So me removing that line had removed it altogether.
Putting the line back in fixed it (he hopes)

Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
Not sure if this was just me but I seemed to have issues over the weekend accessing this BBC app. Streams were not playing, just black screen with the spinning wheel. After exiting the app (and im not 100% sure if this really was happening) but it seemed like it was making my internet connection on the joggler drop or slow right down as I wasnt able to access other apps until i reboot. havnt tried again today but will see if its back working after work tonight. Anyone else have issues?
Working fine last night so must have been problems my end.

@darrenkellum
To be honest what you decribe is usually due to the joggler dropping the internet connection, I believe this is a known issue with the Jogglers wifi drivers.
The driver pack installed by gforums pnp is supposed to update the wifi driver to overcome this, although in my experience it still happens.

Hey guys,
Would appreciate some help, I tried to follow instructions but they were the old ones which did not work. I have tried the new but now have no icons on joggler. Can I get back to basic Joggler as I don't think I am upto making it work?
Thanks
Now FIXED
thanks to Spoyser and Yugo great to get help when needed.

If you followed the instructions you will have created a backup of it.
To restore:
Telnet in
cd media/appshop
ls
This lists the files in that directory,make sure there is one called applications.original before doing the following
cp applications.original applications.xml
reboot

Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
Thanks for the quick response Yugo but the early script didn't backup so applications is not there!
Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
Oh, well you may try and fix the existing version. Its probably just a small error in it.
Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
Okay Yugo, thanks for your help.
Re: BBC iPlayer/Live/Podcast/Categories Player - UPDATED Jun
i've just noticed an error in my post.
its should have read
cd media/appshop
That would explain why the backup wasn't listed
