Default iPlayer on Wii

Had anyone else tried this yet (I mean the new software). It is amazing. Installed it yesterday and watched a few things. I was expecting it to buffer all over the place but it hardly did. If it buffered it was no more than once per programme and it buffered just long enough so it caught up enough and wasn't doing that annoying constant stop-start buffering that youtube can do sometimes.
So happy with this as there is never anything I want to watch on telly when I am in. So now can catch up with all my comedy and a little documentary
Also I bought the Wii a year ago and have hardly used it so to have found a use is an added extra. I'm planning on buying a Wii fit plus next month so it will defo not be a defunct white box for much longer

Anyway I highly recommend the iPlayer software - find it on the shop channel (it is free!).

Used the Iplayer on the PS3 many times and its really good, not tried the wii yet but was planning on downloading it soon. The BBC Iplayer is definatley at the fore front of ondemand content and is the most widely avaible.

I usually watch BBC Replay on my Vbox though! Not all content avaible on this and no HD option.

Default Iplayer

Just downloaded it in a matter of seconds! No problems with it at all! Always had problems with it on the pc and much easier to watch it on the TV! Great!
