Not used BBC I Player for a while, message says I have to sign in using the code shown on TV. The message on TV screen is over to the left side and some of the words including the first 2 letters of code cant be seen any idea how in can move the words to show code in full. Looked on the BBC iPlayer site but doesn't give any help if code cant be seen.

You can also sign in with an email address.
that sign in can then be used anywhere with any device.

It sounds as if your TV screen is not centered ie its on stretch mode/wide screen or something similar.

If you Google 'TV Screen is not Centered' and include the make of the TV you should be able to find instructions to rectify this problem.

Hope this helps :-)

I used to watch iplayer without signing in, and there was a bit you could choose called 'recently watched', where I easily found all my regular viewings. Now I have to sign in to watch, that bit has gone and I have to use the search function every time. A pain.
