How to check if USB port is enabled? -> Partly solved: DVD still doesn't work - vash - 2009-11-22 Hi all! I would like to use an external DVD Drive with XBMC on my aTV. I've installed latest version of Launcher and XBMC on an aTV updated to 3.0.1. I've installed NitoTv 0.8.2. I've used Smart intaller to enable the USB port, but when I connect the DVD Drive, it turns on but nothing happens. Using MediaStream Redux skin if I click on Disk Drive, it says there's no disk. Maybe is the DVD Drive? (SAMSUNG SE-6084) To check if the USB port is working, I've tried using an USB key formatted as Mac OS Extended/Journaled and from terminal I've used diskutil list: Code: -bash-2.05b$ diskutil list The USB key is not there. At the moment I haven't an external HD to try with. Any suggestion? Thanks in advance. - appleflap - 2009-11-22 First: Do you stil have macOSXUpdCombo10.4.9Intel.dmg file on the atv? If not: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macos...dateintel.html copy the macOSXUpdCombo10.4.9Intel.dmg into the... frontrow\Documents Foler (Create Documents folder if it's not there) t Run smart installer! ------------------------- And if al the above is oke Normaly a fat formated usb stick must be reconized. (I'am on windows don't know about os formated) So format to fat put something on (for example avi file) Put the stick in the atv (give it some time to read) And then browse in xbmc to the stick Good luck, - vash - 2009-11-22 thanks for the reply. yes I have the combo update in Documents, however I've tried to launch again smart installer and I've got this: Code: [b]2009-11-22 17:27:09.944 nitoHelper[1675] Root filesystem already writeble :confused2: :confused2: :confused2: - vash - 2009-11-24 ok, I've found the way to enable USB port: Code: -bash-2.05b$ diskutil list Still no luck with the DVD Drive: is there a list of compatible Drive? Mine is a SAMSUNG SE-6084 - davilla - 2009-11-24 vash Wrote:ok, I've found the way to enable USB port: diskutil list will only show mounted disks, perhaps the AppleTV does not know how to handle the DVD disk format. ls /dev/disk* will show all disks |
