Watch bbc on windows media player




















This also includes live video coverage of events and simulcasts of the BBC News Channel - although live streams are only available for UK audiences. Also certain clips may remain in the old pop-up player for the time being. Video and audio clips are now encoded in the new embedded player, though some clips and archived content will continue to be available in the pop-up player format. Live streaming of video is also now available in a UK-only embedded format, but live audio - as well as certain other content - may appear in the old pop-up player for the time being.

Your guide to the pop-up player. Embedded video and audio is any clip which uses Flash and plays directly in a text story or index. You can usually recognise embedded video because there is a big Play icon on the centre of an image in a story or index. The pop-up player, used for live video and audio, is a Watch or Listen icon which launches a player in a separate internet window and requires Real Player or Window Media Player to work.

The embedded video player is available to BBC News users who have a broadband connection. Narrowband dial-up modem users can access audio content only. You will need version 8 of Flash or above to play embedded video and audio. See sections further down for more information on minimum specification details. Once you have clicked on a Play icon on a picture - or on the Player controls - then you can start, pause or restart the video by using the control buttons immediately below the video screen.

With embedded video, you can also change the size of the video by using the Full Screen link underneath the playback window - if you are using version 9 of Flash or above. With live video streams, it also possible to watch content in a standalone window with the pop-out player. You can access this option by either clicking on 'pop-out' option on the control bar, or clicking on the 'Watch in pop-out player' text on the screen when the stream is stopped. Embedding BBC video on external websites.

Embedding video on your site is subject to our Terms of Use. A new version of the live hour BBC News Channel, where the video is embedded in the page rather than launching in a pop-up player, is now available.

This is part of BBC News' move to live Flash embedded video, designed to offer better quality and ease of access for users. Remember it is possible to watch content in a standalone window with the pop-out player. Some clips and packages are not available outside the UK because of rights reasons.

If you are viewing the site from outside the UK, you will be unable to access our live video streams and rights-restricted content and should see a message stating that this media is not available in your territory. If you are unable to view a clip but do not see the 'territory message, you may wish to check information included in the section below: 'I've tried everything and still can't play any clips'.

The BBC now serves advertising on bbc. This means users from outside the UK may see a short advertisement at the start of the video clip. Our aim is to allow as many people as possible to have access to our broadband-quality content, so rather than charge users to subscribe we decided that an advertising model was the best way to fund the upgrade.

The extra funding which this generates is used to develop better content and programming for UK licence fee payers and international users alike. The service for the UK is funded by licence fee revenue and does not carry any advertising.

For more information on advertising at the BBC, go to our dedicated pages. If you are a UK licence fee payer viewing the website from within the UK but can see advertising, please report this to us. We use technology to prevent people from outside the UK from accessing content that we need to limit to the UK for rights reasons. If you are using a 3G card from a UK mobile network operator and are being told that content is not available in your territory, please go to the section below: 'I'm using a 3G card from a UK mobile network operator and am being told that content is not available in my territory'.

If you are not using a 3G card from a UK mobile network operator, please continue reading. You might have been identified as outside the UK because your computer is on a foreign-based network, or is routed overseas sometimes the case with work connections if your employer is not UK-based.

Some programs, such as web accelerators, can also cause your IP address to appear as if it is outside the UK. If BBC media player doesn't recognise your IP address at all, then you won't be able to stream or download programmes. Occasionally it may simply be a network error, so it's worth closing your browser or router and reopening as a new IP address is allocated which may be UK-based.

If the BBC media player doesn't recognise your address, you must contact your ISP as they alone can register your address. If your ISP has registered with the appropriate databases, our servers are updated on a monthly basis so you will have to wait until the next refresh to gain access. If the problem persists, you may wish to contact us with your IP address, post code and internet service provider information.

We have had to make the decision to block all users accessing geographically restricted content via 3G cards. This is because at the moment the mobile phone operating companies cannot tell us if users accessing content via a 3G card are roaming or not. If we cannot say for sure that a user is in the UK, we cannot show them our rights-restricted content or live-streaming content. We are aware that it is unsatisfactory that while you are in the UK you are still blocked from accessing our rights-restricted content.

We are working with the mobile operators to find a technical solution to this problem. In the meantime, you should still be able to access all of our non-geographically restricted content.
