So here's a quick summary of what
iPlayer 2.0 means for
listeners:- TV and Radio together: choose a tv show if you want video instead of audio only
- more ways into our programmes - via /iplayer, and for exampole /radio2
- better sound quality (128k)
- full FF an RW navigation within a programme (no more "skip 15 mins")
- smaller, simpler pop-up console makes it easier to use
- play in page, or in a pop-out console
- navigation in the page, not in the pop-up console
- UK users have no need for a separate audio download (Real)
- recommendations based on the programmes you like
- "resume" functionality means you can pick where you left off
- iPlayer remembers the last 10 programmes you've listened to
- search by radio station, genre, schedule or "most popular"
- extra written programme information on the play out page exposes programme content
- attractive promotion area for all of Radio, and individual radio stations
- social bookmarking
- a more visual offer: nice big image for every programme
- Guidance and PIN protection (coming soon...)
And what it means for
producers of radio programmes:
- need to write better, more detailed programme specific descriptions
- need to provide a good quality image per programme
- we need a new solution for "off schedule" content
- "programme within a programme" issues
- Guidance flag
- Revocation
