This Kodi add-on enables UK users to playback TV content from the BBC iPlayer website.

It uses the BBC website for retrieving information about programmes, which is why it was called "iPlayer WWW".

Pretty much everything should work by now:
  • HD streams are available.
  • Automatic stream selection can be configured.
  • Audio described and Signed content works.
  • Subtitles work for catchup content.
  • Note that all of this needs to be configured in the add-on settings.
  • Personalised features using your BBCiD are available.
  • Radio is supported since version 2.0.0, but not very well maintained. Please shout if there are any issues regarding Radio.
  • Version 4.x of the add-on exclusively relies on DASH streams using inputstream.adaptive
The development site is available on Github (see changelog.txt for more details).
See https://github.com/vonH/plugin.video.ipl...ree/matrix for the 4.x branch of the add-on (Kodi Matrix and later)
This is work in progress. If you want a specific snapshot/release, please download it from here: https://github.com/vonH/plugin.video.ipl...w/releases.

The latest release can be installed from the official repo.

Note that the 2.x and 3.x versions of the add-on are end of life and no longer maintained. Please only use the 4.x versions with Kodi Matrix or later.

If you post any problems with the add-on, please first read the FAQ below and try to be as specific as possible:
  • Where did you encounter the problem? Which section/menu entry did you select?
  • What is the nature of the problem? A typo? Empty content? A stream not playing?
  • Is there an error message you get in the GUI or in your kodi.log file? If so, please specify.
  • Which version and platform of Kodi are you using?
  • Which version of the add-on are you using?

FAQ

1. Does it offer 4K/UHD streams?

No. Currently, 4K/UHD streams are only provided to certain smart TV devices by the Beeb. Once they start rolling out 4K/UHD on the iPlayer website, the add-on will integrate it.

2. Does it support Red Button?

Yes and No. The add-on used to have a selection of Red Button streams that you could try out and play. These are no longer available. However, live events that are listed on the website should play. They simply appear like any other programme or episode as well, so it is hard to tell that it is a live transmission. Also, there have been issues with playback of this live content. These issues were outside of this add-on and related to the Kodi player and/or Inputstream Adaptive.

Thank you.

IMPORTANT:
The official Kodi version does not contain any content what so ever. This means that you should provide your own content from a local or remote storage location, DVD, Blu-Ray or any other media carrier that you own. Additionally Kodi allows you to install third-party plugins that may provide access to content that is freely available on the official content provider website. The watching or listening of illegal or pirated content which would otherwise need to be paid for is not endorsed or approved by Team Kodi.

CaptainT Thank you for providing this "iPlayer WWW" beta in a clean new thread.

I gave beta plugin a very quick trial on my RPi2 where generally seems to be working OK, Live TV appears to work fine, but with playback of selected catchup items slightly more hit/miss with some requests not starting stream (With request to check log file) The following is a short extract from my Kodi.log which may provide some clues

Does this replace your iPlayer Lite add-on? Or is that for the future once it's out of beta?

One small cosmetic error - in the settings screen for streams, you've got "Preferred steam bitrate for catchup content" twice - I think the lower one should be for live content?

Aside from that it looks great to me, nice one!

Editted to add - just seen the report above, and when I tried that programme (Strictly S13E01?) it plays fine for me, so maybe a transient glitch or something? Mine's also on a Pi2 under OE 5.95.5

Thanks for sharing the log. This looks strange, I can play both of these episodes just fine.

The error occurs at a typical point where geoblocking would kick in, I hope there isn't something else going on at the moment.

Another possibility might be that this is just the result of a previous (undetected) error. Will PM you with more details.

This replaces iPlayer Lite. iPlayer Lite is no longer maintained.

That's right. Thanks for pointing it out, it will be corrected in the next release.

Using a proxy I have now started running 24x7 of my main Kodi box, fantastic streams !

Noticed a small typo under the settings -> Streams . Last line should say Bitrate for "Live" not catchup

Stunning, stunning streams - great job. Just watched F1 qualifying in 720p 50fps. Not much different to broadcast quality.

Superb job!

Works very well, very responsive!

The only issue I've encountered is that it seems to list shows in alphabetical / numerical order. Since most iplayer shows that are continuing series are just listed as "Show Name, Date" ie "Question Time 16/09/2015" the order tends to get mixed up. Not a huge problem, just takes an extra step to look for the correct episode. Smile

Many thanks for your hard work!

Correct, this has been reported by DarrenHill as well. It is fixed in beta2, now available from the link in the first post.
