You the man, stuck that build on my test box and the live tv streaming works perfect now.
Iplayer script is even more completely awesome. News 24 in the kitchen now!

I've installed the latest release of this onto the linux R20654 may 25th xbmc release.
Also running mediastrem 0.97 skin.
It works flawlessly - however the video is not stretched to full screen and instead runs at (presumably) it's native resolution in the upper left of the screen.
Anyway to get it to run full screen?

On the xbox you can just resive it using the centre key on the remote but - it works fine anyway without needing to from what I can see at the xbox aqt least.

This plugin plays flash-based videos right? (or at least, iPlayer uses flash video).
Using this plugin on linux/live, does it use VDPAU to play the video? (in other words, can we get hardware accelerated video playback of HD flash content using XBMC Live?
thanks.

I just upgraded to get the ability to step through the stream, but I'm not having much luck.
The first 10 minute step I do (Up on the XBOX remote) takes effect after a few seconds (I presume it empties the buffer), but any subsequent stepping just crashes the XBOX.
And I have absolutely no idea how I can enter a destination time using the XBOX remote - can anyone help here?

So is tracking, resuming and bookmarking supposed to be working under Linux? I am having problems with doing these things on Arch Linux. Fast forward is not very helpful either in getting back to where I want to resume the program (the time indicator is not right and it often exits the stream). I also got the wrong episode of a program once (it was fine in the web player but in xbmc it linked to ep 1 when i clicked 3).
Apologies if I missed something trawling through the forum threads if this was already covered somewhere. Apologies also if i missed something obvious as I havn't been using XBMC very long and this is the first and only python plugin I am using.
I am happy to file issues over at google code in more detail if it turns out these features are supposed to be working.
Thanks for the work devs! It looks very promising!
