I've only just now noticed that Veetle is one of the best plugins out there; as someone else said, it's just like switching through different channels. There is one problem though, and I thought that maybe there is a solution to it. The problem is that every time a video ends on one of the channels (such as a movie or an episode of a show) the stream stops and has to be restarted. It would be great to be able to start a channel and then walk away from it, without having to come back and restart it.
And on a related topic: has anyone successfully gotten the Justin.tv plugin from XBMC Eden to work on the Xbox? I see that Jan's build includes a version of it, but haven't tested it yet.

Re: Veetle
Justin tv works great on Jan's XBMC release. Just used it today. My favorite plugin right now.

OK, since psychotron confirmed that the jtv plugin does work I decided to check out my log file and see why it was failing for me on the standard 3.2 build of XBMC4XBOX.
I got it working with just one small change to the default.py. Change this:

Thanks very much to Jan for getting this going on the Xbox.
The only thing that would make this plugin any better would be if more results were displayed per page, since loading pages is so much slower on Xbox than on a PC running XBMC. But that's up to the original coders of the plugin, of course.
