@happyendin21 please try with updated version and report back

Thanks again Memphiz for the prompt response. I updated the script and I get a new but similar problem it is confluence being offset on the bottom of the screen. The Bottom is not visible and the top ends mid screen I have attached another pic of the problem. I appreciate the prompt responses. I am in no rush to get this working and appreciate the time and effort you have gone through to get this to work. This does not appear to be something that can be fixed with zoom or tv settings on my end. Am I the only one having these or similar problems?

Thank you for your reply!
Yes, I did run this code and this is error i got at the end.

I can confirm I'm having the same issue. Running on a Samsung LN40B530 at 720p 60hz. Tried 480p 60hz with identical results.

your previous configuration will be lost.
Yes you only have to run your Code example.

with the official cydia version the part "apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2" was meant.

thank you both for your timely and informative responses. cheers!!

Guess it is a good sign....)

Thanks for the quick work on this! I installed it on my ATV today but when I launch xbmc, it opens in portrait! i.e. the screen is rotated 90 degrees to the right. Is this a known issue?

thesteve, yup - it's in the sticky for the atv build, as well as a few posts up

Sounds like it may be a TV compatibility issue?

I was able to navigate off-screen to the video calib settings, but the "screen" it's calibrating to appears to be offscreen as well

Thank You Memphiz. Your patch is working great!
Keep up the work.
You are the best.

Found a way to fix this... I SSH'd into ATV and then opened up guisettings.xml from /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata

In there under the 'resolutions' section I changed references to 720 to 1080 dimension sizes instead. Respring ATV, open XBMC and it now appears to work...

Hope that is of some help. Nice one to Memphiz for the patch!

hi guys, after entering:
apt-get update
mkdir -p /Applications/AppleTV.app/Appliances

I also get: couldn't find packe org.xmbc.xmbc-atv2. Any ideas? Am I missing steps in the process?
