Not enough space/memory - sprazzi - 2012-05-08
Looking to free some space in internal memory of atv2 i tried to delete the content of /private/var/cache/apt/archives via Filezilla but I came across a permission denied error.
Is this normal? Shouldn't I be able to delete those files? Aren't they backups?

If you've never rented videos from iTunes store, that folder won't exist.
RE: Not enough space/memory - deanmv - 2012-05-28
Should also be there from using Netflix/watching trailers/youtube I think as well.
RE: Not enough space/memory - FreeFighter - 2012-05-28
I see, will try that then. Thanks
RE: Not enough space/memory - FreeFighter - 2012-05-30
After clearing that, it still says on a couple movies watching cache is full. Going to the Video directory there's nothing newly added for cache. Any ideas where else it stores?
RE: Not enough space/memory - deanmv - 2012-05-30
That cache is in the RAM, not on the disk. Use advanced settings to change <cachemembuffersize> to 0.

More often than not, the real problem is the server on the other side of the internet, and there's nothing that you can do on the ATV2/XBMC side.
RE: Not enough space/memory - FreeFighter - 2012-05-31
OK, thanks guys

Is this a possible reason my XBMC logo is gone after updating to XBMChub? Because I can't figure anything else out.
