Hi all

I recently purchased a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (Model number GT-P5110) and managed to get most things working on it however I'm not able to get iPlayer working.

I've downloaded both the iPlayer and latest version of Flash from Google Play.

I've tried using both the preinstalled internet browser and Dolphin (which I tried in both Android and Desktop User Agent modes).

When I get to the iPlayer screen i can see the initial image of each video however when I click the triangle to play I always get an error message 'This Content Doesn't Seem To Be Working'

I have checked on the Adobe site and it says I have Flash 11 installed.

I have tried on multiple iPlayer videos and other wifi networks and get the same message

Any ideas?

Thanks

Rev

Hi Folks

I can watch BBC Iplayer but I cannot get to watch live TV .... is this because I bought my Tab2 from France???

[Bart Laroc]

do you mean using the bbc iplayer app ?

or trying to watch it via your Tab Browser ?
(browser settings, set 'user agent' to 'Desktop')

can you view this :

BBC :- http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/10318089

ITV :- http://www.itv.com/itv1/

Ch4 :- http://watchlive.channel4.com/C4
(registration needed)

Ch5 :- http://www.channel5.com/

if you can view via Tab Browser, save as bookmark, copy bookmark shortcut to HomeScreen

Have you tried to watch live TV via the browser ?
Http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/

That link just takes me to the same place as the iplayer ap ... and no facility to watch live

[Moderator Blast]

Well I just used the link and watched live TV. Looks like its an ICS issue if you can't find the words "Watch live"

after taking a screen shot on your Tab, transfer it to your PC, then when your making a post in the forum,
click on the 'red circled' "Choose File" (browse to screenshot.jpg on PC & select file),
click on the 'blue circled' "Attach this file",

when you have completed the text for your post, select 'Add Reply'

Alternatively, completely from you tab....

Hi there,

Im using google chrome and having trouble viewing some videos online, mainly I attempted to view videos at www.liverpoolfc.com/lfctv firstrowsports.eu and gametrailers.com and each occasion it either said that I needed to install the latest version of flashplayer which I have or it just had a blank screen. Can anyone help?...I only just purchased my 10.1 wifi tab so Im new to all of of this.

Thanks

Dear Experts!

I just bought my galaxy tab yesterday and I was very surprise that TV online broadcast is not running... i saw afterwards that the adobe flash player is not supported anymore by this tab/android system!!!
How can I substitute this program? It is not available on the apps anymore and as far i could read this mesure was implemented 2 weeks ago (such a bad luck... I think that if I don´t find a solution I will return that tab!!! :-((()

Please tell me if something can be done!

Thanks in advance,
Karla

I have the tab 2 10.1 and running ICS 4.04. I am unable to run adobe flash. I had previously installed player 11.1, however it is installed but sites state my flash player is not installed? I also visited adobe and it appears they stopped supporting fashion ice cream sandwich? I went to download flash player from playstore and adobe is no longer available?

Please suggest solution as this was main reason I chose droid vs apple for my tablet

On the Flash download page on the Google Play store, Adobe adds, "Note: Flash Player is no longer being updated for new device configurations. Flash Player will not be supported on any Android version beyond Android 4.0.1, 4.0.2, 4.0.3, 4.0.4 ICS"

So anyone hoping to quickly get in and download Flash for their Galaxy tablet or any of the upcoming Android devices unveiled at IFA this week will be out of luck, as Flash won't be supported by any devices running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean or beyond.

I am having this problem with both my galaxy nexus phone and my tab 2 10.1... installing firefox for android and that version of flash does not fix it...

You can still download Adobe Flash from Adobe's Archive. Just make sure you download the version for your firmware build of 4.0.4

I have specced up and bought a Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1 because i want to play a game - settlers, watch Itv player, Bbc i-player and sky go etc through wi-fi. I already have a Samsung Galaxy S11 smartphone which i have been watching tv on, but for some reason a. I cannot install Adobe FLASH 11 on this machine and the ITV player will not download because it is not compatible. What has happened. Have i completely wasted my £299?
