What system are you getting the files from.
Make sure that they are not unzipped first (MAC does this be default it seems).

For ATV2, I drop them in the "updates" folder. This means that they are removed after you restart the ATV :-)

Then select "install from zip", point to that folder and badda-bing.

Do not unzip
go to video ad-ons
get video adons
install from zip file
go to applications and select the zip you want
wait few minutes
back to get adons
enter the adon
select video adons
there is your video adons

Thank you guys for your help. i got it. and im starting to fall in love with XBMC thanks .

I got my AppleTV yesterday to replace my Atom-based nettop HTPC and I put XMBC on it today. I'm running into some issues with the Hulu and Free Cable plugins, though. When I try to play a video, it says it's opening the stream then does nothing. If I try to play something else it says "One or more items failed to play..." What is causing this?
Ice Films and Yahoo Music Videos seems to be working fine.

I believe you need to update a file to be able to playback the streams

As per the ATV 2 FAQ

[NEW] Some RTMP streams are not working because the version of librtmp packaged with xbmc for iOS/ATV2 is not the most up-to-date version available. To update librtmp download and transfer it over to XBMC as described in THIS THREAD (particularly post #14)
