I do not use IPlayer that much. Mainly it’s for those times something clashes on the live feeds, or I fail to spot a show of interest too late.
Recently when I enter IPlayer it has asked me for a numeric code, but after some fiddling it comes up without any code being entered.
can someone explain what is going on, please, and how to avoid the rigmarole?
can no one be bothered to reply?
You have to register at the BBC website to check you have a TV licence.

If you are talking about the Humax iPlayer app in on-demand, you just need to follow the on-screen intructions.
I.e. Go to bbc.com/account/tv, register and key in the 8-character code displayed.
Despite the video playing in the background stating you only need to do this once, if you sign out from the Humax app, you will have to repeat the process.
At the moment it is optional but this will change.
Presumably, this is something that is rolling out. I am able to access iPlayer without entering any code – and that has been the case ever since I had the 4000T. A couple of times I was asked to indicate (YES/NO) that I had a TV licence, which seemed superfluous – as you could just answer in the affirmative whatever your licence status might be. R-
Thanks all. I had registered independently of the Humax box for watching IPlayer on the desktop computer, expecting that to cover everything in house.
It look, though, if the problem recurs at the Humax box, I’ll need a very convenient NOT trip stairs.
