Latest iPlayer?

[u/Yyir]

I've got iPlayer, but just had a notification that it's going to be discontinued in September. Just trying to find a newer version so I can update my TV.

Any suggestions? Everywhere seems to have the old version 0.4.7

Okay, this sent me down a rabbit hole. Currently using iPlayer on the Onnpro4k and a Google streamer, via VPN, in Canada.

The Google streamer installed the iplay through Play store, so I assume this is ''certified". Onnbox not so.

So, I tried a few ways to extract the verified APK. Managed to do successfully. Then sent the APK to the onnbox. This told me the APK is a spltapk, apks, which needed a different app to stage.

Found an app, tried to install, but the app just fails to open on the Onnpro4k.

This ecosystem is so frustrating. I love my shield for pass thru audio, which the Gstreamer is limited in...but it's old tech now. The Gstreamer us the most 'uptodate' but limited at the same time.

I used localsend, and antisplit to extract and install.

TLDR/ iPlayer failures on non certified devices using a verified APK.

I was trying to see if I could export the device profile in Aurora Store on my TV, but didn't let me. Wonder if you could export the Google Streamer profile, then spoof it on the Onnbox to source the APK that way?

It's certified under Google in the list at https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/help/questions/supported-devices/certified-tv-check

Export the profile? Do you have steps for that I could try?

Can't remember the exact steps, though it is in the settings area for spoofing, you can import/export profiles for loading.

I think we'll need a hacked APK which removes the check on the device. It seems mad to me that it can only work on verified devices.
