BBC iPlayer Issues 2014 (MASTER THREAD)

After the hastle in December with BBC iplayer not loading at all for several days, I have been using it quite happily until I tried just now. The page loads & I can get as far as 'play' but then get the screen saying that the URL has a problem. Most annoying! I have tried it on my other TVA in the house & they're fine, so it looks like its a sony problem (again). Has anyone else had any problems?

13 March 2014.  After numerous problems experienced January-April, iPlayer now has the message, 'Temporarily cannot access the server. Please retry'

 

I've been retrying several times a day for a week!  All other internet services are fine.

 

BBC have been slated this year over their continuing 'improvements' to this service.  I wonder why!

Hi Carnafin

 

If your TV is a 2010 model, there is currently an on-going problem.  See the following thread for more details, and further updates (if/when received):
