Has anyone tried contacting the author of the plugin yet?

I guess the answer is no as no one has replied to you. I've no idea how to do that. If you know, can I suggest that you do so? As a previous poster has looked at the code and not found the cause, it would be best if the author were to take a look. If they are not interested then maybe someone else might like to take over the code? Personally, I'm beginning to question my use of XBMC as the add-ons are the only reason I use it.

In line 54 I see that the url changed from http://www.cnet.com/podcasts to http://www.cnet.com/cnet-podcasts
In line 55 beautiful soup is looking for div class="podcast" and I don't see that anymore. So it looks like that is no longer valid. I can't say whether the video id's have changed because I don't have a basis for comparison. If there is a skilled python dev in the house who would be willing to take a look at this code the community would be most grateful.

A temporary solution is to add CNET as a video source. From the XBMC home menu go to: Videos > Files > Add Videos...
Enter this path/address: rss://feeds2.feedburner.com/cnet/allhdpodcast
The name automatically fills with "All CNET Video Podcasts (HD)" so click ok.
You can now at least enjoy the current CNET video podcasts until a fix shows up.

Oh man, that is an excellent suggestion!
It never dawned on me to add an rss feed as a video source.
VIDEO SOURCE = any SOURCE! Doh!
I did this with my playon a year ago and forgot about it.

This is something I had forgotten about too. Good find.

I made a new version of the addon to get it working again. Here's the thread: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=192868.

Cheers Skipmode A1, this works brilliantly!
Note that a 'Force refresh" and "Check for updates" to the 'XBMC.org Add-ons' repo didn't work for me, so I took the liberty to download the zip file from your github and then "Installed from zip file". I hope you don't mind if I post the link for others: https://github.com/skipmodea1/plugin.vid...t.podcasts
Thank you for making one of my favourite add-ons work again. Oh, and I'm glad I was able to help in some small way too

No problem, enjoy it 
By the way, the update should become available in XMBC sometime today.

this is probably going to make me look stupid but how do I add this to my xbmc?
