I'm totally new to this so I'm sorry if I sound like an idiot.

I jaibroke my Apple TV2 no problem.
I installed XBMC no problem

Took a long time to figure out how to find video sources on my computer. But i can see the file names (movies and tv shows) in the XMBC program.
But when I click to play, it doesn't work.
I'm thinking I might need to install some codecs (sounding like I know what I'm talking about, but acually kinda picked that off the internet)?
Also, I'm not sure how to install all this stuff.
I want to learn, but reading code and shit is not at the top of my list. Is there like a "Install 3rd party apps for dummies"? I've been reading I have to do it through SSH? I'm a little weary in playing around with that, but if I have a step by step thing, no prob.
I digress.....
I love the idea of "opening up" my Apple TV 2 to do other things.
But first I want to focus on just playing video, specifically .avi, through XBMC.
Like I said, I see the files on the screen, but when I push play, nothing.
I run Lion FYI
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Well you don't need codecs. For getting rid of your problem please follow the bug report guide which you find in the first link of my signature.

Alos be sure to read the FAQ (top of this forum).

Is there a way I can get a bug report through SSH?
I don't understand how post it through the ATV

you don't, you retrieve the info, then post it to a pastebin site.
