- Getting Flash errors with BBC Radio Widget?
The largest single problem I’ve heard of with BBC Radio Widget is a Flash security dialog, which beachballs the computer. Only a very few people get it — and I’m not sure why — but the solution is here.
- Why everything has been quiet around here
I’m afraid recent emails haven’t had a response, and I apologise. My long term, previously-perfect, and sadly now ex-girlfriend did something astoundingly crappy and out of character to me, and it’s been — is still being — very difficult to adjust to the new circumstances. I’ve got a backlog of stuff to do, and I’ll be doing my best to get around to doing it soon, so please bear with me!
- Major BBC streaming changes affecting BBC Radio Widget
The BBC have removed RealPlayer streaming as an option for listening to many radio stations online. This has major ramifications for the widget. Most stations have been replaced by an audio message, but one or two are vanished completely. For these stations, using RealPlayer streaming – the default mode – with BBC Radio Widget 4.03 may cause your computer to become unresponsive. Upgrade to v4.11 or better to avoid this problem.
