I have found a way to get the streamed N96 BBC iPlayer videos to run on the X1. It's a small Opera tweek which makes the BBC think you have a Samsung I900.

The full instructions can be found on my blog here:

ps, the quality is pretty poor, but that's not my fault

bbc iplayer mobile now works on the x1 without any kind of mods! only 3gps files tho, and i've only tested with wifi.

edit: it doesn't work without wifi enabled - they must be covering their backs - or done a deal with the networks...

souldn't take xda mods long to work round that? hopefully.

It only works in Opera, IE is not compatible.
