.xbmc is a hidden folder. ls -la will show it. did you try to "cd" to it ? All folders starting with a . on linux are "hidden" folders

You need a much newer xbmc version. from the last few weeks for example.

Ok.
Just a thought why did the Repo installer say it was compatible then.

Because I haven't updated the description.xml. I was waiting for a final dharma release to force version numbers in the python (right now it may or may not work depending on whether you are running a very new release or an older build with some customisations from me). New linux/windows/osx releases use a new addons system also, so you wont use the svn repo installer anymore.
I will put some code in v2.2 out shortly that brings up a warning message if a version is too old. anyone running an older version but with librtmp patches will have to upgrade or put up with the requester.
when you first launched the last version it should have popped up two message windows on first start anyway. one about iplayer being uk only, and a second about new libRTMP requirements and to check the website, so it wasn't as though I didn't already try and explain.

heh! too late . oops. If the plugin now thinks your version of xbmc is too old, it will display a requester at the point of plugin upgrade, but also display an extra item in the top level of the plugin to warn users. I think that is now more than enough "safety labels".
New version for download. I guess hitcher will update his addons repo soon (Sorry for pushing out another release so soon).
It should also address the issue with the "show dialog on play" setting. If any windows users could try switching that option back on with v2.2 of the plugin and let me know if it works, it would be most appreciated. thanks.

the folder should go in your "addons" folder, and it needs to be renamed to "plugin.video.iplayer". or just use hitchers repository which includes a version you can install/update automatically.

exobuzz - can you change the version number each time you update it that way it'll update automatically for anyone using the repo.
I've made the latest one 2.1.1 for it to work.
Thanks.

it doesnt work using just major.minor ? that sounds like a xbmc bug to me. you are specifically talking about addons here ?
