Hi i'm having trouble running this on Plex RC3, based in the UK so can access the iPlayer website fine without proxy/other workarounds.
New to Macs in general, only had my iMac around 2 months, been following this thread for about 1 of those and I've not been close to getting this to work!
Lightly scanned through the thread again just now and and i'm still lost.

I downloaded - xbmc-iplayer-plugin-200808251228 and this includes 3 files:
- default.py
- feedparser.py
- iplayer2.py

Then on the XBMC Video menu, use 'Add Source' to add the plugin to the list of video sources. I can't remember the exact procedure, but it's fairly self-explanatory and there are docs and wiki pages on XBMC Plugins that will explain it better than me!
A proper script version is coming (with custom GUI and everything), but for now the plugin is easier to maintain which is why that's come first.
Where do I create the folders to place these files?? I've tried showing the contents of the Plex package and making them in there, but then I can't add them as a source in Plex as the App can't see the contents of the package.
I tried making them in my movies folder, but none of the .py files show up therefore I can't add them as a script?
The closest I got was getting it to show in the script section, it said running for a few seconds next to it and then stopped, this was a few weeks back.
Any help appreciated.

He means the original black XBOX. XBMC doesn't work on the 360.
As far as I know this only works on Linux, Mac and Windows versions of the software. As the support for it on the 'original' XBOX is there (yet, possibly never?). I hope it will as I have the original XBOX version too.
