AppleTV 2 (black) iOS 5.1 & XBMC

Today, Firecore released a version of SeasonPass with tethered support. Anyone try it yet? How does XBMC fair? Big Grin

As said above, plus stated on the aTV Flash Black page for the 5.1 JB, XBMC isn't yet working / supported on the new iOS. Obviously XBMC needs to be updated, but I've no clue as to exactly what / where needs to be modified. Hopefully someone with knowledge of what needs changing will pop up and state what is happening, and more importantly what the effort required to get XBMC running is.

Yeah, that's one way to know. Smile

SSH into the ATV and see if the file structure is similar to version 4.4.4

Since it was a major update that may be one reason along with others.

Just guessing though.

I am also looking for an xbmc release for the ios5.1 since my apple tv update itself last night. I have found the following but I do not know if this is correct.

I`ve installed it yesterday and it says that front row cannot be patched. But anyway, if you try to open xmbc it only reboot the Lowtide. So i`m at work, maybe i can check the logs later

Give us some time. IOs 5.1 seems a bit bitchy to us. I will close this thread now for stopping the pressure a bit. But i will keep you informed here! Stay tuned, patient and calmed (this time Wink

).
