What the script does is start the smart playlist so that XBMC can process it, then it pauses the video while it takes out all of the necessary information. It does this for each "channel" that you have. It won't do it all of the time, only when you start it with a new channel and after it has deemed that it needs to reread the smart playlist (or if the option to force is on).
The behavior you're seeing is at least partially expected. While the playlist is being read the video should be paused. If you unpause that won't matter. Pressing cancel should work after a few seconds. Of course the expected behavior is also to continually update the progress bar and finish.
Can you try one thing? I'm not sure how you installed it, but it looks like the addon directory is called Jasonra-XBMC-PseudoTV-03a88da. Can you please rename it to script.PseudoTV and then restart XBMC and retry? I'm not sure if it will help, but it will help me narrow down the issue.
