Cannot get BBC iplayer on Sony Bravia TV (Dec 2018)
I have KDL-43WF663 and all has been OKAY but now cannot get iplayer nor catchup nor "start from beginning" to work - I get message "something went wrong playing this programme". yes I have latest software - yes have checked internet connect (in fact reset it). I can get iplayer fine on laptop through same internet box. About 4 weeks ago I did a complete factory reset and it all functioned again -but 2-3 weeks later it has stopped again

Hi John,
Welcome to the community.
I'll see if I can find this out for you. Maybe someone else in the community can help in the meantime.
Thanks,
Pascale

Hello JohnHW49,
Try refreshing the internet content on your TV from the network settings. I've seen a number of users recommending this solution for multiple apps problems.
All the best,

I live in the U.S. and I have a Sony XBR-43X800E. I am trying to download the BBC iPlayer app but because of licensing in the UK the iPlayer app is not available in the U.S. When I go to the Google Play Store on my TV the BBC iPlayer app does not show up. Apparently I need a VPN (virtual private network) so that my IP address can be located in the UK and not in the U.S. There has to be an easier way as a VPN's have a monthly fee. How can I get the BBC iPlayer app on my U.S. based Sony Bravia TV? Thank you.
