Been using BBC iplayer on my son's ps3 with great success for months. When I tried to use it tonight, the home page fills a quarter of the screen, I can access the menu and find the show I want to watch but can no longer access or find any "play" button.
Mrs k claims it was like this on Monday when she tried to watch strictly come dancing and that she hasn't changed any settings...
Has anything changed to stop it working or does anyone know how I can fix it?
Thanks in anticipation.

Might be the same thing I had recently, home page basically showed the featured programs scroller and nothing else.

In my case, I had to clear cookies and the cache, exit the browser and then go back into iPlayer (may have also turned the console off and on again!) which got it back to normal size. If the whole player is appearing but it doesn't fill the screen, look at the display area and resolution tabs. Resolution should be -2 and display area should be full screen or something - though definitely not full pixel!

I had the same thing just now, cleared the cache and cookies and that solved it (so I am now happily watching the Quali).
