BBC iplayer not working anymore (fixed) - IriDium - 28th Jun, 2013 09:41 PM
If your video add-on iplayer (For BBC programs has stopped working with something akin to :-
iplayer2.py: INFO watching url=rtmp://bbcmedia.fcod.llnwd.net:1935/ app=a1414/e3?as=adobe-hmac-sha256&av=1&te=connect&mp=iplayerstream/secure_auth/800kbps/MP/b03373kk_1372270353.mp4,iplayerstream/secure_auth/480kbps/MP/b03373kk_1372270419.mp4,iplayerstream/secure_auth/1500kbps/MP/b03373kk_1372270046.mp4,iplayerstream/secure_auth/400kbps/b03373kk
There is a fix.
edit .xbmc\addons\plugin.video.iplayer\lib\iplayer2.py
and change the line
'http://www.bbc.co.uk/emp/10player.swf'
to
'http://www.bbc.co.uk/emp/releases/iplayer/revisions/617463_618125_4/617463_618125_4_emp.swf'
save and iplayer will now work.
Tested on Beta 1

THank you for posting this. My version is still working as of now the time of this posting so I wonder what is different with your version?

Interesting. Maybe I have an earlier version -2.4.17. If you have the same version can you check the iplayer2.py file to see if it has the new line. I see there is a 2.4.18 which might have the fix in it.

Aha! ;-)
Yes of course. I have been using 2.4.18 since it came out and it's better than 2.4.17 IMO.
So that answers that one! - Maybe worth trying it out if you have had issues?
