Sony PS3 is getting BBC iPlayer: some issues

The BBC as we speak is working on iPlayer for the Sony PS3 which is good news, but at the moment they are having compatibility issues which they need to work on.

Head of Online Media Group, BBC Future Media & Technology, Anthony Rose has said that they have revealed the PS3 version of the popular iPlayer and is now in the works.

He basically said in short terms that bringing BBC iPlayer to Sony PS3 is being worked on now, they are not completely there as of yet because the PS3 uses an older version of Flash, this older version of Flash does not support some of the features which are used in their media player. The good news is that the PS3 has the all new and promising Flash 9 update, yes there are still some compatibility issues but time will fix the problem.

We will keep you posted on this.
