Same problem here too - configured UK proxy in Settings>network and tested access using a PC and it works fine - but iPlayer Video Plugin shows the show, then says Error Fetching Media Info and then it tries to play the Video Stream and throws a script error.
I guess the iPlayer plugin is broke

Can any one help I get a script failed message when I try and use the Iplayer addon. This is what is in the debug log. Any help is appreciated

Is the developer still active?
Is there anyway that the app can be updated to allow a proxy server to be set?
It's fine for people in the UK but for us ex-pats, we can watch through a proxy on the PC but have never been able to get XMBC (on the AppleTV at least) to recognize a proxy.
I'd even be happy to support a developer through a PayPal donation to get this working.

Sorry if this is a little off topic but does anyone know if there is a 4OD plugin available for XBMC?
