Semi-techie Windows user here!
The way I've been installing all the patches so far is to modify the .pm
file using Wordpad. It's usually explicit what and where the changes
need to be made. I managed to alter the BBCXMLparser .pm file this way
and I think it works Ok, certainly didn't stop the app running. However
my attempts to modify the HLS.pm met with failure as I was unsure what
text had to be replaced, where, and with what, the end result being that
the app wouldn't work at all.
If you would be so kind as to publish the original .pm files (or
relevant section) with the changes to be made highlighted in red and the
revised text to be inserted, that would make it a lot easier to identify
what needs to be altered. :)
Many thanks!
