Yes.

OK, thanks for clarifying.

Are you using the off-road mode?

Hi LeoCG. I didn't realise it but yes, I just noticed that it was ticked in my menu and switching it off has resolved the problem - thanks!

..What is off-road mode? Is it like the the old Opera Turbo? I certainly didn't knowingly enable it.

Scroll down a bit further in Settings to find the Cookies manager.

Thanks Pesala. I used the "Remove all" button under the "All cookies and site data..." button and then refreshed the iplayer page. It gave the loading jam issue reported elsewhere on these forums which I have also experienced before. On second refresh it came up OK but still says I'm outside UK. So I closed the tab, deleted cookies again and restarted Opera before loading up the site again and it still shows the same issue.

I guess it's not a simple cookie issue so.

Hi Pesala,

Thanks for the suggestion, should have thought of that myself. Though funnily enough I'm having trouble getting my cookies to delete.. I'm using the "Clear browsing data.." button under the Privacy Settings with all the boxes ticked. However, even if I close all tabs, do that, and then restart Opera I'm still logged into this forum so I'm not convinced it's working properly. Is there something else I need to do? It hasn't changed the issue with iplayer.

I don't know if it's useful as I'm not a developer but the web inspector gives the following 11 errors and 1 warning:

Also, I should note that I did try disabling my addons yesterday with no change.

Hi,

I've got a slightly odd issue with Opera 19. The BBC iplayer site no longer recognises that I am in the UK. I got a new IP from my ISP about a week and a half ago and I thought it might be a network issue associated with that. However I noticed yesterday that it is working OK in Opera 12.16 and Firefox. Example link which gives me this error:

Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this further?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I've had the same or similar problem recently with Opera 19 where numerous tabs will just refuse to load and stay stuck loading on white screen. Most noticeably for me this has been happening with YouTube. It has been an intermittent issue over the last week or two, difficult to reproduce and I think it may be fixed by restarting the browser.
