Updated BBC iPlayer on our Samsung TV this week and although overall it looks like an improvement they have removed the volume control. The previous volume control was not very good, but removing it means you need to exit iPlayer to adjust the control then go back in. It also means you cannot mute the volume. Think they need to fix this major bug.

Is there a bug with Google
Recently I have noticed a couple of issues with Google when searching, and it seems to occur on multiple PCs with XP and Win7 operating systems, using the Chrome browser.
The first issue is when you do a search and get the results listed, then click on a result which takes you to the web site you requested if you click back to go to the search results it takes you back to the Google homepage and you have to perform the search again. This does not occur every time, but has happened to me multiple times over the last few weeks.
The second issue also does not occur every time and might be linked to the first issue, after typing in a search you can usually hit enter to perform the search, but sometimes it leaves a blank search result section below the area to enter the search.
I imagine Google have loads of testers and have noticed this strange behaviour and are working to fix these rather minor bugs.

ITV Player for Samsung SMART TV
I have just downloaded the new ITV Player for my Samsung SMART TV, the menu system works well and I can see the programmes available, but when I select a programme to watch a progress clock appears in the top right hand side of the screen and then the TV switches itself off! I've tried a few times and it keeps happening, I think I will have to wait for ITV to fix an obvious issue with their app.

Excel 2007 problem printing fix
Recently I have had problems printing spreadsheets from MS Excel 2007, the print preview worked fine but when the spreadsheet was printed out parts of the document were missing. After some research I found the problem was due to a Windows update (KB2596596). Removing this update fixed the problem.
