Had the same problem, there is no button so I just selected the 'force release' option, either by remote or keyboard and select it. Wait a while (may take some time) and you'll get a popup 'force release is now off' (or words to that effect).
I also get 'force release failed' sometimes but unsure why this is? Maybe someone knows?
Hope this helps

Hi..Just to let you know that the PlayIt chrome/safari/firefox extension now supports this addon.
A few minor glitches though. Details here
Hoping that someone might be able to help

It doesn't work with me unfortunately. I just get 'failed to force release'. Trying to work out what to do next....

Set the option in advanced number of days to keep resume point to 0.
RE: [RELEASE] iPlayer - BBC Video and Music Plugin (UK only!) - cablegoon - 2013-07-14
took a while to get it working - I guess its different for everyone. With my ATV2 I had to change the rtmp port - change the resume point to 0 - did a force release.
still cant get live streams to work but happy I can watch most of the shows

The system works well in principle but I cannot find a way to make the iPlayer add-on (v. 2.4.18) display the Formula 1 live stream in HD, not even during those races the BBC is transmitting live, when Xbmc stubbornly displays "SD".
I'd be grateful for any advice!
RE: [RELEASE] iPlayer - BBC Video and Music Plugin (UK only!) - supasparky - 2013-07-17
i just installed 2.4.18 on my eden build and most of the time with on demand i gets to 80% and looks like it will play....and nothing plays, but if i check the "now playing" it shows the stream as playing. using the force resume lock doesnt help.....
live TV doesnt seem to work at all.
do i need to roll back to 2.4.17 and then add in the new swf line in that iplayer2 file?
RE: [RELEASE] iPlayer - BBC Video and Music Plugin (UK only!) - Milhouse - 2013-07-18
2.4.18 on R-Pi/OpenELEC 3.1.2: If you press Info (I) on an episode, XBMC will crash. This is reproducible on all channels.
Example: BBC One, <SELECT>, A History of Scotland (1), <SELECT>, <i>/<INFO>, wait a few seconds and XBMC will crash/restart.
When the crash occurs there is nothing relavant written to the log - the XBMC process simply terminates as soon as <i>/<INFO> is pressed. On OpenELEC, the xbmc.bin process exits cleanly (no segfault or anything nasty) but with an abnormal exit status of 139.

At least that made it work on my end again.
Thanks, this got 2.4.17 working again for me
I didn't try 2.4.18 so can't say if that would've worked.

Hi
Ive got the resumable problem and none of the simple settings solutions work. Could someone point me in the direction of where/how to amend the code as suggested in recent posts? I'll be alright with carefully amending a line even if I don't know what I'm doing, but just need to know which file to open in (I presume) a text editor.

Changing stream protocol between rtmp <-> rtmpt does nothing.
My browser can reach the above rss feed without issue.
Please help!
I'm still having this issue...
Looking at the log file around line 920 is where the http.request(url, 'GET') is made. I'm now wondering if having Python 3.3.1 (64-bit) installed on this machine is conflicting with xbmc's version.
Come on dev help me out!
RE: [RELEASE] iPlayer - BBC Video and Music Plugin (UK only!) - astranet - 2013-07-25
Hi,
This question is indirectly related to the new Resumable feature of the iPlayer plugin. A very nice feature that works well on my Raspberry but not on the G box Midnight (Android box).
Running Statics barebones 0.1a firmware on the G box.
The problem occurs when attempting to forward an iplayer catchup stream using the iPlayer plugin 2.4.17 or 2.4.18.
Fast forward at 2x speed works - but attempt a faster forward or clicking on or dragging the progress VCR control causes the video to break up into extreme pixillation on the top half of the screen.
If you then click the play button the audio resumes but the video continues with the coloured pixillation pattern. You then have to stop the stream and then start at the beginning.
This problem does not occur with Raspberry RaspbMC. You can click on the progress control and the stream will continue at the correct point.
I've ignored this problem for months - but now, with the new version iPlayer 2.4.18 there is an added incentive to look for a solution. With RasbpMC and iPlayer 2.4.18 the new Resumable feature works just fine - but, with the G box, if you attempt to resume a stream you immediately run into the G box fast forward problem - exactly the same symptom described above. The result is that the resume feature cannot be used - and the problem is almost certainly the G box.
Has anyone experienced the same problem with a G box or any ideas for a solution? I am not optimistic.
G Box details:
Revision 2.1 A9 Neon
ARMv7 rev 4 (v71)
AMLOGIC MESON3 8726M SKT SK Revision 0020
XBMC 12.0-RC2 Git:20121220-e4a2a36 compiled Dec 20 2012
RE: [RELEASE] iPlayer - BBC Video and Music Plugin (UK only!) - VanZan - 2013-08-01
Is it safe to update to 2.4.18? Currently using 2.4.17 and very happy (after editing the .swf thingy).
RE: [RELEASE] iPlayer - BBC Video and Music Plugin (UK only!) - privado - 2013-08-01
i'd leave 4.18 alone mate, 17 works a treat after the edit.
