That's not live streaming. So it isn't how to "live stream BBC iPlayer on a computer without the use of Flash". It is of course, a way of playing BBC iPlayer. But I am quite happy to use Flash. I'd rather use Open Source, but I also want both to live stream and to keep my nose. Lisi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
