Brian, the forward and rewind buttons are disabled until you are able
to forward or rewind, then they enable. I could play a sound or
something else...
Peter, the click is the sound of the BBC site being accessed. Two
things: first, which programme are you trying to watch? Second, try
holding down Control and I for a bit to turn up the volume to make
sure that isn't it.

Managed to get it to work now but don't seem to have any sound. I hear a
click as if it's loaded something up but can't hear anything.

Subject: [access-uk] BBC iPlayer TV Beta
OK, I've had another stab at the BBC TV programmes available through
iPlayer. This new application, BBC iPlayer TV, works pretty much
identically to the radio version - that it, it plays the TV programme
from directly within the application, it doesn't just launch your web
browser. Good stuff: doesn't need RealPlayer installed, only Windows
Media Player (which you should all have.) Bad stuff: you can't skip
forwards/backwards until most (all?) of the file has downloaded - the
buttons don't enable. Full instructions in the help text, just hit F1.
No installer, just download and run.

I didn't have time to put in a "search every channel" feature but I
did let you search the current channel (control and F), hope that
helps finding things.
Do let me know what you think.
Best wishes,
Alasdair
