I also wanted to highlight that it is being reported that the BBC will be unleashing the iPlayer HD this month:

Do you think this plugin will be able to be updated to support this? Also, I am looking at getting an Apple TV to install xbmc and I was wondering if it could cope with streaming HD from the iPlayer? I know the apple TV is capable of playing 720p when it is H.264 but I am not sure what file type iPlayer uses (is it Flash?) and if so, does that mean the Apple TV could display it?
Thanks!
It's unlikely to be supported straight away as XBMC doesn't yet support even full quality SD streams. Frosty is looking at adding this XBMC so as soon as it is supported I will add it to the plugin. For more see this post
