Get yourself the new BBC iPlayer version it says it plays without any annoying buffering...

But the current one does not buffer, IF you have downloaded the programme before you watch it!

Some people find that even downloaded programmes stutter a bit with previous versions.... due to poor coding of the file reassembly executable in relation to programs time sliced by the app (happens when more than two programs are downloaded simultaneously...) this has now been fixed. It's their claim not mine... all I'm saying is a new version of the app with a slightly different/improved look and feel is available... if you don't have the latest version of the player a reminder is displayed in the top rhs of the player's display.

On this screen you will the statement about buffering of downloaded programs...
