I just got this working today, from outside UK. I am using the Tor network to get a UK exit IP. Then using the s/w Proxycap for forwarding certain requests to the TOR network.
I set up the rules to forward certain addresses from XBMC through the TOR network. So only authentication goes through Tor network but the real data comes directly and fast.
Just forward these IP addresses... 212.58.0.0/16
Now this might be too wide a net for some people. Tweak accordingly.
Note: I am not using the internal XBMC proxy setting. Proxycap automatically intercepts certain requests and forwards them to the Tor network.

I've installed the iPlayer on Dharma beta 1 on Windows 7. When trying to open up the directory listings it waits at 'Loading Directory 0%' for about 2 minutes before proceeding. This issue repeats through the iPlayer menu hierarchy. However, streams seem to play fine.
Has anyone come across this before?

I've installed beta 2 and most of the problems have resolved themselves - just a few streams not working, such as the BBC News Channel live stream.
Even the HD streams are working great on my little atom powered Revo!

Last month I installed iPlayer addon on xbmc svn from Ubuntu svn ppa.
Since upgrading from svn to Dharma beta 1 and also beta 2 I am having a problem with skipplus and skipminus on this specific plugin. I have filed a bug with the plugin community but they suggest that this is an xbmc issue. Before submitting a ticket in trac can anybody confirm this?
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Play any stream
2. Press control for skipplus or skipminus
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
the expected output is the stream stepping forward or backward of 30 sec or 10min depending on the command. The actual output is the stream freezing for about 1 minute and then starting again, sometimes from the requested time, other times from the same point where it paused
What version of the plugin are you using? On what OS?
Plugin version 2.3.1 on Ubuntu 10.04 and XBMC Dharma - beta1 and beta2

Might be better reporting it on the Trac system.

Could easily be network issues. Note I'm currently unable to stream a bunch of videos from the bbc, and some users have reported issues on the messageboard also. Last night I played a video fine, but then later another one I had to restart a few times. I don't think this is xbmc related (but I there are issues with xbmc and rtmp seeking currently)

Hello,
I've just installed the plugin and it can be seen within the Videos add-ons and radio works fine however streaming video does not. A window pops up which appears to start the buffering but no video ever appears.
I've got XBMC installed on Fedora 12.
Can anybody help? I can post a debug if required. Many thanks.

for me, RTMP port 80 is very unstable and port 1935 is a lot better, but not quite perfect.
some streams seem to drop always in one place so i wonder if there's a problem on the server end aswell..
