I'm on TMobile and the other day (Tuesday I think) I was able to watch a complete episode of Doctor Who but since then (and I think since the software update I'm getting this error).

I think it works over Wifi though, I'll verify tonight.

Is there anyway you can send the previous version so I can test my theory ?
[Android Apps and Games] FryWalker:
There is no actual difference in terms of the streaming between myPlayer 0.40b and 0.50b. The changes made have been server-side by the BBC. The 0.50b update brings the app up to date with the new iPlayer layout that the was released yesterday for mobile platforms.

Out of interest: are you able to retrieve the programme information for episodes whilst on 3G? That is are the details shown when you click the info (i) button along side and episode thumbnail.

MyPlayer ...50b is not working, need .40b

Hi I live in Texas USA, I have used the previous versions with no problems, till now.

see i don't stream the episodes directly cause it give me the not in UK ip error, so what I do is press the info button and download the episode to my sd card, and watch it later. I usually do this when I go to sleep.

Now after the update all I see in the info screen is contacting server,but no download occur.

please post previous versions till issue is resolve.

Not showing in market

this app doesn't show up in android market on Nexus with Froyo. Can this be fixed by the dev?

I would love to try this app.
[Android Apps and Games] stooby:
It doesn't show up in the market for me either (UK, Motorola Milestone running 2.1)

I would also love to try it since I know from previous experience that 3UK allow streaming TV over 3G.
[Android Apps and Games] FryWalker:
It should be approx the fifth item listed in the Applications (free) -> Multimedia category on the UK market. If you have a ROM that has not officially been released in the UK yet this may prevent you from seeing it.

Re: [APP] myPlayer - BBC iPlayer client [0.60b 17-Jun-2010] BETA

That will be it then - I don't think I've ever had an "official" ROM on either my old G1 or this Milestone for more than a couple of hours ;-)

Any chance of posting the apk here for those of us who can't get it from the market?

Thanks in advance.

myplayer and rockplayer apk

hi frywalker, glad too see the greatest windows mobile app on android. please keep up development as i would love to buy final version for my htc desire.:D

have you tried testing with rockplayer apk yet or are you developing through base android player.

just wondering
[Android Apps and Games] serialkillazzs:
myplayer and htc desire

just to inform you frywalker that pausing and resuming times are slow. audio will start after pausing on htc desire but takes i few seconds for picture to resume.

just a little feedback

are you anywere near download options yet,

i use app for ceebeebies and wee one, handy to kill time or keep her preoccupied for a few seconds with timmy time or shawn the sheep.
[Android Apps and Games] FryWalker:
I am coding a native media player within the app, although we will probably add the option to use an external media player at some point (by user preference).

-Fry
[Android Apps and Games] Stotherd:
Hey, been using this a couple of hours on my 2.1 desire, few of things i've noticed could be improved on:

1. When playing radio, you can't lock the screen. Not sure, but I think it also loses its place in tv shows if you switch to another app. I'm assuming some multitasking capabilities haven't been added yet.

2. Radio also reports it's attempting connection to 3G when in fact it connects through wifi.

3. The apps 'home' page could have more options.

Otherwise fantastic replacement for beebplayer, and can't wait to see how you're going to improve on it. :D
[Android Apps and Games] unclemonty:
I wish I could say the same. No response to my previous post on this issue, since which I have tried three different wifi connections in different locations, so I'm fairly sure it's not the cause. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the application.

Browsing programmes works fine, but on trying to play I just get "Retrying (wifi)..." until it times out and says check ISP or firewall.

[Android Apps and Games] spidermagicat:
any chance of an apk?

I can't get hold of this app through the market. I'm in the uk but I've installed a custom rom so I believe that's the reason (as mentioned in an earlier post).
[Android Apps and Games] navrac:
it goes connecting wifi - no retrying then straight to the unable to access media stream
[Android Apps and Games] fracmo2000:
Totally loved this app for WM, now a mate has a dell streak :D

Noticed the BBC streams look terrible when you access them...have you now added other live tv streams? c4, itv etc?

Also, which app are you guys using to play the stream? Dells basicvideo player sucks!
[Android Apps and Games] NX3:
Works great on HTC Legend. Great to get live streaming working !

One minor issues, with 3G off, Wifi on, it still reports buffering via 3G.

Would there be subtitles support for myplayer soon? I'm deaf so subtitles is a vital part of the iPlayer experience. BBC have just added coloured subtitles which works for the iPlayer app on the iPad so would be great to see it if that's possible.

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] dcoales:
Great to see this on android. I was a paid up user on wm and mostly used it to download radio programmes to listen to on the train. I've just bought a samsung galaxy s and the app works very well on it. If bbc supplies a higher quality feed then the galaxy could certainly handle it.

Once you have downloads working I will gladly make a donation.

Keep up the great work and I hope the bbc leaves you alone.

Cheers

[Android Apps and Games] navrac:
streak problems

What address does it attempt to connect to on the other end? I can then try pinging it and try to open a socket manually over my wifi - it may be that it's being blocked by my isp - (plusnet). My son with a desire couldnt stream either - although he got retrying messages that I didn't.

Not streaming over 3g might just be a red herring as frankly its so slow round here it struggles to download a tweet, never mind as stream! Sadly when I was in a good 3g area I forgot to try it!
[Android Apps and Games] adam18488:
the app would be great if the quality of the stream was watchable!
[Android Apps and Games] FryWalker:
navrac,

I would suggest that it is probably the signal strength that is the issue as the app has a strict response timeout to ensure that the loading times are minimal and it remains responsive. Does it work on wifi for you? Maybe worth trying in a stronger 3G area also.

-Fry
[Android Apps and Games] navrac:
No I'm the one where it doesn't work on wifi.

I didn't try to remove the O/C which works well otherwise.

Unable to connect message

I'm getting the same message as navrac. I get a list of programmes and I'm able to click on info and get more details but when I ask it to play there's a long pause (connecting) then a message telling me it can't connect to media stream with warning about port 554 and access from outside UK.

I am in the UK using a Desire and I've tried 3g and Wi fi with exactly the same results.

Anyone got any ideas...?
[Android Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Which mobile provider do you use for the 3G connection?

On wifi, does your router employ a firewall? Can you port foward your device on port 554 TCP and UDP? If possible can you test the wifi connection with your device in the DMZ?

-Fry
[Android Apps and Games] lybrand:
Thanks for getting back to me Fry.

I am on Vodafone for 3g...

I've tried port forwarding and enabling DMZ for the Phone but still getting the same message...

[Android Apps and Games] macray76:
Excellent update - I'm loving the ability to download the high quality stream! Saves me having to use get_iplayer on my linux box.
[Android Apps and Games] dcoales:
Thanks for the update. I've had a couple of problems with the download feature. I downloaded a tv program which downloaded fine but when I later went back to it in the download list I couldn't see how to play it. Tapping on the item gave me the options to stream it over wifi or download it again.

I tried downloading it again with the same result. When I looked in the downloads directory on my phone using a file browser I saw two copies of the program. Tapping on one of them opened the media player and started to play the program. Unfortunately there was no sound.

Downloading radio programs however works flawlessly.

I am using a Samsung Galaxy S with android 2.1.

Update: I've just downloaded RockPlayer from http://www.freecoder.org/rockplayer/RockPlayer_0.2.8_Beta_v6_vfp.apk and the video plays with sound :-) Should have read the first post more clearly ! My bad. BTW I paid for this on Windows Mobile and will happily pay again on android if you intend to make it a paid for app once it comes out of beta. Otherwise happy to make a voluntary donation if you have a donate button somewhere.

Thanks for a great app.

Apk download

OK, It seems i'm not the only person with a rooted/custom rom and am unable to download myplayer off the marke, is there any chance the apk can be shared online.

I really look forward to getting it up and running on my x10
[Android Apps and Games] whatagonad:
Port 554 error message here as well using wifi - I have a Samsung Galaxy S on vodafone. BBC iplayer on my PC connected to my LAN works fine though and I've tried this app on my phone and it works connected through a neighbours wireless so I think it must be something to do with my router (Draytek Vigor 2910) - I'm not great at tinkering with the settings on my router and I can't see an obvious fix but I'm pretty sure that's where the problem is.
[Android Apps and Games] DJGibbon:
Wow - the downloads feature really is amazing, I'm hugely impressed. Stick a donation link somewhere, you definitely deserve it!

The one feature I'd really love to combine with the downloads is the ability to be poked by Tasker / Locale / similar apps - so that I could, say, get the latest edition of a weekly show every Sunday night (when the phone's plugged in and connected to wifi).

I might then have to marry you though, so weigh it up carefully.
[Android Apps and Games] navrac:
Ah - interesting my router is also a Vigor.

After some experimentation I found that the signal round here (GPRS only) blocks a whole load of ports and that in a 3g area I could get it to work.

So it may be that the vigor router is the root of the wifi connection problem - I use several different AP's here - but they all go back through the vigor router.

Strange - I got the vigor as its one of the few that can support some of the wierd things I do.
[Android Apps and Games] FryWalker:
It might be worth giving your mobile a fixed IP address on your wireless network and then assigning it to the demilitarised zone (DMZ).

-Fry
[Android Apps and Games] skimminstones:

Hi,

This looks like a really slick app - thanks.

I get the connection fail / retry problem too. It would be really great if the app could request the appropriate port forwarding with UPnP.

Also, on my Desire, playback of downloaded radio programmes stops if I switch to the home page or another app. Any way to fix that?

Thanks again.
