Re: BBC and YouTube without Flash?
" Whilst I agree with you about get_iplayer the poster was asking about BBC news videos, presumably from their web-pages.Those are flash."
Ah yes, sorry, I misread the post.
But when he said 'view video on YouTube and BBC news', just in case he meant :
(view video on YouTube), and BBC news
rather than:
view (video on YouTube and BBC news)
(ahhhh, the ambiguous wonders or the English language!) get_iplayer can be used to view or record the live channels too.
