Formula 1 on BBC iplayer

[khevolution]

Now I enjoy my F1 and like watching all the practise sessions and qualifying, but unfortunately my hobby means I'm away most Sundays, so miss the actual race day

Now usually if i miss any programs i can catch up with BBC Iplayer, but for some reason none of the Formula one episodes are available on the Iplayer via virgin media on my telly, but i can watch it on the iplayer on my PC, is there any particular reason why it does show up on my telly, as watching through a 19" screen just doesn't have the same effect as a 42" with surround sound

have you tried putting your computer onto your tv, a vga or hdmi cable from your laptop or desktop to your vga. you would then have to somehow get surrondsound from your computer to speakers

[khevolution]

my computer is upstairs and the telly is downstairs unfortunately, and that is alot of effort a couple of hours telly :P

[khevolution]

i have found a solution now, thats slightly less effort then moving my desktop PC every race day



Remembered this afternoon that my PS3 that has been collecting dust for some time underneath the telly has a Iplayer feature on it, tried it out and watched the Turkish Grand prix in glorious HD quality

on a side note Vettel is a royal tt

Any kind of laptop with a good wireless connection is what you need. Or a PS3...

have no laptop, and the PS3 has been sitting there doing nothing for months, gutted i didn't think of it sooner
