I have been told that I appear briefly in Bespoke on ABC TV, in particular seen on last Sunday the 19th. I have gone to the ABC TV website and gone for iView, or via the program guide, and tried to watch, only to have it stall complaining about flash being required. This is with ESR Firefox on 3.2.0-4-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.2.86-1 i686 GNU/Linux/Wheezy.
If you use Google-Chrome (NOT Chromium) then Flash just works. I didn't test the iView web site because it requires signing in, but I expect it will work. Wheezy is going out of support and for desktop installations it's well past the time when it was suitable for use. If you are going to use Flash etc then you really need to keep your system up to date.
I know some others do manage to use iView running Linux, comments about how appreciated, as would be someone grabbing and saving as a less unfriendly format, the latter even more appreciated.
deb http://www.coker.com.au wheezy misc deb http://www.coker.com.au jessie misc deb http://www.coker.com.au stretch misc The above APT repositories have Python-iview built for Debian, it was built for wheezy but still works. I probably should update it.
I will also look for a way to let the appropriate people at the ABC know that flash is inappropriate for many reasons, particularly the security vulnerabilities.
But not using Flash would allow naughty people to use a python program to download content! :-# -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
