BBC iPlayer
I am sure that there is a darn simple way to fix this...but being an opera newbie I can't find it.If you start playing content from BBC iPlayer (which plays just fine) then you get the option to view the content in a pop-up window. If you you use Firefox or IE when you choose this option the content in the original window stops and starts playing in a small moveable window. This window can then be positioned anywhere on the current screen so allowing you to get on with other things whilst watching a program.
Now under Opera 10.51 the popup window gets displayed and starts playing but the original content does not stop so you end up with two copies playing. Now the popup window is only moveable within the opera browser window.
What trick am I missing here?
Thanks

Not very sure why you are having the problem. But it works as it should for me.
As soon as I click on the pop out button the main iPlayer stops playing immediately.
The pop up is only movable in the browser window though, but there is a way round that.
Click on the the top of that tab window to maximize the tab.
Now you can drag that tab to the task bar and it will open in a new window.
You can then resize that window to a preferred size and place it anywhere on your screen.
