Of course, that's why I wrote "repo push requested". It's not done yet.

Oh, I thought that meant you were telling us to update to the new version from the repo. I didn't realize that it was a process that would take so long (I thought it was fairly quick to get the repo updated). Sorry about that.

It's not my own repo, so I am not responsible for waiting times, sorry.

Brings up an interesting point.

1. How did you decide on the repo you use.
2. why not have your own?
3. Whats for dinner?

Hi, I'm going to try this for the first time for my ATV2. I'm new to ATV btw.

Can I just use the links from the first post of this thread? Are they updated for ATV2 also?

Thanks.

I just got this working on my ATV2 a couple days ago so i'm going to reply with what I had to do to get this to work. I used the download link from the first post of this tread and unzipped it to /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/addons

But when I started it up on the atv2, I was getting a message "error running sports devil". I looked in the xbmc.log file and found a permission error on the /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/addons/plugin.video.SportsDevil/cache/currentcfg file. I granted write and execute permissions to the mobile id to that file and relaunched. I got a bit farther but had to grant addional permissions to the actual cache folder also. Once I had the permission problems fixed, the majority of the links were working.

I'm not using the latest nightly yet. I'm still on the 10.0-9 June 23rd build.

I'd recommend you follow the same troubleshooting path I did, unzip the file to the addons folder, and launch. If it doesn't work, check the xbmc.log for errors.

Thank you very much. I'm not a mac user so I don't remember how to change permissions but I'll let you know what happens after I try to install it.

I should have pointed out that I'm not a mac user and my linux skills are not that great. I use a tiny windows program called winscp and connect to my ATV2 and then go to the path and "right click, properties" to change the permissions..

So the ATV2 doesn't allow me to create temporary files in general? Would it be better to integrate dummy files into the package and just overwrite their content?
