Hi All,

I have recently bought a chinese import Android tablet running Android 4. When using either the iPlayer app or a browser (have tried standard one and Dolphin) to watch BBC content, the audio is fine but the video is running at approx 4 x speed.

The box plays youtube content fine, and I've tried raw flashplayer content which also works, so it seems the problem isn't necessarily with flash. However using flash to play via iPlayer the above problem occurs.

Any help much appreciated.

Rob.

I too have a cheap tablet running 4.0 that plays the video in iPlayer too fast, both in iPlayer app and stock browser. 4OD via the browser is the same, and both go blank screen when switching to full screen in the browser, so it is presumably a problem with Flash.

Did you find a solution Rob?
