hmm, does it work outside the US?
also, when trying to load your script, i get Error: Python script failed: special://home/scripts/CBS/default.py
Running Ubuntu 9.04, and that's not where the dir is located, it's under /home/user/.xbmc/scripts/CBS/default.py rather.
debug says "AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'argv'

I have a pretty slow DSL connection and I get a lot of buffering, which makes viewing a show unpleasant. I have messed around with the XMBC cache size, to increase buffer, but that seems to have no impact on plugins. I looked at the "settings.xml" for this plugin and see that there is this option:
<!-- 0.Ask 1.Play 2. Download 3. Download and Play -->
I tried modifying this setting to 2 so that it would download for later play. After restarting XMBC, the plugin now asks me whether I want to play, download or download and play, but I then get a python script error after it starts to download. I noted that this line in "settings.xml" and wonder if it needs to be changed for XMBC 9.0.4.1 on Apple TV:
<setting id="download_path" type="folder" source="video" label="30010" option="writeable" default="E:\"/>
Anyone have an answer to this? Thanks.

Thanks. I changed the settings.xml line from
<setting id="download_path" type="folder" source="video" label="30010" option="writeable" default="E:\"/>
to:
<setting id="download_path" type="folder" source="video" label="30010" option="writeable" default="special:\"/>
This was progress in that the file apparently downloaded, but I don't know where to. I have poked around on in the AppleTV directory structure and don't see it. Where would the above path put this, and how would I name that as a source in the video menu?

I figured this out and the video downloaded to a new directory I created and made as a source, and it played. However, it doesn't work again. It's like the plug in is ignoring the settings file; it does not ask me to play, download, or download and play... I rebooted the ATV but still no luck.

Whenever I try to run the plugin I get:
Error
Python Script Failed:
special://home/plugins/video/CBS/default.py
What does this mean?
Thanks

This may need a quick update in the scraper section. All the show titles under "Most Popular" are coming back as just "CBS".
