Samsung Internet@TV BBC iPlayer App

BBC iPlayer Application on a Samsung LE40C650.
TV has the Internet@TV feature.
Built in Ethernet Port, WiFi supported with an optional USB Wireless dongle.
The iPlayer runs well with my 8Mbps connection without stuttering, but does not remember where you were on a given programme, so you need to sit down and watch a programme at one sitting. Aside from that it works well.

I've wondered this myself, I have a BD5300 player with internet@TV which hasn't implemented the iplayer, all I can think is that there is insufficient memory in the player to support the application.

One thing I have found is that the volume control does not work properly, at 0 its loud.

The normal TV volume control is disabled. Also there is no way of adjusting the brightness of the screen whilst within the internet@TV applications.

I've raised this with Samsung, with post any response.

@hilary211 I have just raised this on iPlayer forum as well, did you ever hear anything back from Samsung, as it is really bright.

[hilary211]

@batmandandrobin I never got a reply from them.

I'll try again.

Nothing more to buy!

The applications are stored in the TV's internal memory (about 500Mb I think).

When you connect the TV to the Internet, it will automatically update itself with the latest apps.

@tickleonthetummy I have the same issue, did you ever resolve it?

anyone find that iPlayer menu navigation is incredibly slow? like scrolling left/right on the main menu (highlights 1:15 on this vid). don't think it's a internet speed issue - it's perfect on my laptop.
