Re: [backstage] RealPlayer banished Toady!
Hopefully the BBC will keep things like RM for use on internet radios as IME they don't like flash. But for web browsing I agree, flash is nicer than RM!

Probably should take it back! My understanding from reading comments elsewhere was that they have problems with Flash "loaders" as they do strange things to the streams (?dynamically changing addresses etc) rather than the more conventional fixed wma/rm feeds. ¦ D P Ingram ¦ Ab Ingram Oy ¦ ¦ darren at ingram.fi ¦ www.ingram.fi ¦ ¦ ¦ +358 6 781 0275 (FIN) ¦ +46 8 5511 4995 (SWE) ¦ +44 203 014 3839 (UK) ¦ ¦ extn 8001 ¦

[backstage] BBC "clock"
Hi all. Not strictly a backstage question, but I am sure someone will know the answer. I recall seeing a rather nice flash (?) rendition of an (old) BBC clock without any BBC branding on a web site a year or so back. It was just a plain clock. Does this ring any bells as the searches I have found so far don't refer back to the original developer so I cannot learn as to the availability and licensing of same and naturally one cannot lift code! Thanks in advance ! Darren ¦ D P Ingram ¦ Ab Ingram Oy ¦ ¦ darren at ingram.fi ¦ www.ingram.fi ¦ ¦ ¦ +358 6 781 0275 (FIN) ¦ +46 8 5511 4995 (SWE) ¦ +44 203 014 3839 (UK) ¦ ¦ extn 8001 ¦
Re: [backstage] BBC "clock"
Thanks. The clock I really like is at http://edmullen.net/fclock.php (bbc2.php) but I need to find the source/author/licence else, quite reasonably, the web developer will not incorporate it (if it is possible to do so). It is a classic clock design and one of the better ones out there. Any clues ?

Re: [backstage] BBC "clock"
I followed his guidance at the top of the page where the nice clocks were found before posting :) "Please note: I did not create any of these Flash clocks! I found them all on the Internet. I placed them here for information purposes only. There's little point in writing to me about them as I have said everything I know about them here and on the individual clock pages."
