and 2 weeks ago none of the limelight rtmp links worked, so you see, much of this is well out of my control :/
MilhouseVH: I just installed the plugin on my Pi running openELEC and I was able to play back that stream and others without problems. I would try again, and see. Lot's of things can affect this, from your network connection, to the selected CDN, to the version of librtmp on your system. I am however unable to reproduce the problem here.

Please can you a) try on another machine in your house like a linux or windows machine (with frodo). b) try on the pi with open elec stable / frodo as that is what I just tested with. Might determine if it is network related or something else (Maybe some of the CDN's don't like your IP for example, or there is connection/routing issues, or maybe it's something else). Most of the things are out of the plugin's control anyway.

Iplayer 2.4.18 has worked well for me on the apple tv for many months. But since yesterday, it is not retrieving any files when trying to watch a programme. Is it working for other people?
Is this new version of the Iplayer 2.5.1 compatible with ATV? When i installed it, i got an error "dependencies not met".
Thanks

You mean nothing shows up for a channel / programme ? Try turning the cache off in the addon settings. Sometimes the BBC site returns blank files for the RSS feeds, or at least I have noticed that when testing. You can also post a debug log if you want further information, else I would just be guessing. It should be compatible - it has a dependency on script.module.elementtree, although I can probably remove that as all platforms have a new enough python to use the builtin. Having said that, that dependency should be available from xbmc. Without a debug log I can't help further.

Thanks exobuzz - so I'll have to check why my VPN is not working - don't worry, I'm not bothering you with that!
Thank you so much!

Quick update; my Iplayer is working except when attempting to watch live, BBC One in particular - stream gets stuck opening stream at around 80% and locks XBMC. Is this just pot luck sometimes?
I cannot get a log to pull down because it crashes XBMC.
All settings are default on version 2.5.1
