    Of course not. You can see by my other widgets that I am capable of fixing this one. However, I do not have to time (doing other paid work and iPhone development) to fix this one. Donations have already enabled me to update some of my other widgets and "free" software.

    I have little time at the moment, sorry. I will get round to it eventually, but the only way to speed things up - or prioritise fixing this widget - is to make a donation on my website. Thanks.

    You can pick the channel (BBC1/BBC2/Aertel) through widget configuration.
