OK, thanks

I know my ip address since i use cyberduck and can get on my aTV2 without problem, but clicking while playing your example gave me network error telling me to check network settings again.

Also tried pinging from terminal seems to work, so it's not my ip address.

Could it be port related? i left both on 8181, usually here it's 8080 from my internet provider

Have you yet installed PlayIt Service add-on on XBMC? Have you restarted XBMC after installing service? For apple tv2, there is no need to specify IP address, default value = apple-tv2.local will work.

Great idea! I'm currently using a variety of userscripts for this e.g.:

- but I'd prefer a unified solution.

Glancing at the code, it looks like you've spent a fair bit of time (re-)creating scraper plugins for various sites. Have you thought of using the Navi-X scrapers? [1][2] They function like a web service that translates a web page URI into the URI of its streamable media file. It should be possible to extract/repurpose their NIPL interpreter code. [3]

Alternatively, you might be able to build your server as a layer on top of Navi-X or as a standalone app that delegates to it.
