G'day,

 Just a quickie, just wondering if anyone can watch Plus 7 (channel 7) catch-up's on the ps3 ?
Because on my ps3 I cannot
I have the latest firmware 3.30 and with all the flash stuff enabled in options, also DMZ done and all the ports forwarded in my router.

Cheers.

Please anyone ?
Can you try that link on your ps3, I just want to see if it's something I'm doing wrong =)

well my frend, i think its the ps3 web browser. the flash player on it must be out , i only get the spinning circle

Well surprise surprise - I tried this and both good (sort of) and bad news.

Success! - I can watch "home and away" via plus tv on the ps3 and it works perfectly on all episodes on plus7tv

Now for the bad news - the ONLY videos that work for me are "home and away"  NONE of the other shows work and I tried every other TV show available on plus7tv

Frankly this is bizzar and anoying as I hate that show.

I thought that maybe it was an encoding issue an that the aussie shows were being encoded differently to say the "US" shows but I disproved this theory as the "Matty Johns footy show" also didn't work.

I guess a step in the right direction but frankly not good enough.  Sony step up and fix this.  Why have it on the bravia tvs but not on the flagship entertainment system?

Oh by the way - channel 10's streaming works properly.

Channel 9's streaming doesn't work as it uses siverlight. (microsoft)

does this work any better for anyone else?

ok, i had trouble with plus 7 aswell but got it to work fine, i am watching criminal minds as we speak,,,

load i view first, then hit the ps button, dont exit browser, go down to plus 7, & then it works
