I'm having the same problem, with the plug-in failing. Any other idea on how to 
solve this problem? This is my first time trying to use Icefilms. Please, help. 
Thanks!

@Solace

Use Cyberduck or similar to create a SFTP connection between your computer and 
your ATV. Then download the file attached in comment @16 or @17. Then do as 
comment @50 say. However, you don't need to SSH in first, I think. I probably 
did it in OS X Terminal first, but..

charm:

i have atv2 followed instructions using winscp it took a few goes of dropin 
file into mega turned of xbms rebooted apple tv now ice films works,but on some 
films still get the script error but not on them all anymore so i think 
possible fault on megaupload links as per the notice on the icefilms web site,

@Solace:

Have you done anything more? You'll probably need Cyberduck as I said, or a 
program like it. Just watch, this'll give you a guideline:

Alright, now icefilms isn't working again. I played one video to test out the 
new .py and the video played. When I try another video I get the same crap that 
was happening before.

@69:

Try to hold in the MENU and PLAY button at the same time for like 6-7 seconds, 
that's what I did (restart), and then it worked - almost, as no movies or 
TV-shows will actually show their links when I click on them.

@crick

It worked for me too but only for one video. Play another one and see what 
happens.

Let me start of by congratulate you on the trouble shooting. Can anyone tell me 
if the changes on MegaUpload now require you to sign up for a premium account 
or should the fix also work for us cheep bastards?

I did it with Cyberduck.  Wow.  Feels so good to learn.  Thanks!

Jenny:

1) Download Cyberduck (or similar if you're on Windows)
2) Watch this video (you'll need the IP-address to your AppleTV):

@78:

Hm, that's weird. You're sure you've managed to replace the .py file? Well, I 
actually had to jailbreak my ATV earlier today, but I guess there should really 
be no need for you to do it, because that error wasn't the reason I did it..

@Andreas: Thank you for your help! It works now.
I'm a PC user and used FileZilla to drop the file into ATV as per comment 50. 
For all other newbs, try it out.

I used WinSCP and worked fine just switched megaroutines.py with beato's and 
solved script failing problem I believe. But just curious does anyone knows the 
fix to megaupload or icefilms whichever it maybe acting as if its playing a 
video without me seeing it. i.e I would choose a movie and then come out of it 
and try to go onto another and nothing happens it just tells me its working and 
nothing comes up. To my knowledge it believes that you are still watching this 
first selection and have to wait until it is finished even though i am not 
watching it.......this is very annoying is there anyway to fix this?

Im on mac Lion also, all was working fine running icefilms on XBMC used last 
early hrs of today, now im getting script errors, i see lots of posting of

@85 yeah I got that. ;-) My question is where to put it?
the upload location on ATV is clear to me, but I am running XMBC on my macbook 
with Lion. 

in comment 11 there is a location mentioned, but that does not exist on my 
system.

wow it worked!! I uploaded the file posted here and it worked instantly without 
restarting the apple tv. I tried overwriting it and it did not work. Just 
delete the old file and copy the new one.

Worked perfectly! Downloaded the #16 file megaroutines.py and renamed the old 
one to megaroutinesold.py. And it works like a charm!!

Thanks so much!, 

And for you guys that are having trouble with the movie db scraper, just 
install the YOUTUBE plugin under programs and man o man, TMDB works as well.. 
do not ask me why but it is working now!!!

Keep up the good work !

@89:
Sorry, then I'm not able to help you any further without Google'ling. I don't 
use XBMC on my Mac, so I'm unsure how you should proceed. Try to search up the 
XBMC folder? Could work, as it must be somewhere :).

@93:
"The default", as in the same file before replacing it? You could just rename 
it to megaroutines_backup.py or something, or just download it to your 
computer. You won't be needing it for anything else than a backup, as you're 
replacing it with the file you download frrom @16/@17.

Original comment by andreasb...@gmail.com on 2 Jan 2012 at 7:14

For Mac users with Lion:

To find the XBMC folder, you need to opt+click the GO menu in Finder. Then you 
will see the mentioned Library folder.
