This is working now with the latest update 4.12.0 but we'll keep working on a better solution

Thanks for the fix Nick ... so far, so good and I can even record ITV with Jaksta which is a bonus!

Are there any plans to have a redirect for Channel 4 now we can't watch with All Computer?

Does Channel4 work when you're directed to 'Watch BBC iPlayer' ?

Re channel 4 - which I watch because of the foreign programs "Walter Presents"

by fluke I discovered that TVNZ.CO.NZ has most of the series (delay in releases vs CH4)
You have to register but just an email & pswd. I set Hideway to NZ & all good. :D

Direct CH4 would be great too - they have almost always been blocked for me :dead

Channel4 seems to be working on the latest HideAway 4.12.1 when using 'Watch BBC iPlayer'

Hideaway just updated but I still get All 4 is only available in the UK with Watch BBC iPlayer

I tried restarting the laptop, deleting cookies and an incognito window but none helped :(

No-one else has posted in over a week so maybe that means I'm the only one who can't get Ch 4 on the BBC redirect?

Anyway All Computer is working again for all the UK channels and I can watch the BBC, ITV, Ch4 and Ch5 on both Chrome and Firefox

I tried it a few days ago but waited to post in case it was a flash in the pan. Hopefully it stays OK and I haven't just jinxed it!
