Is anyone having a hissing sound coming through any video you play? I never remember experiencing this and its very noticeable now.

Perhaps something wrong with the HDMI cable? Um... Have you compared with other version's XBMC? Does this issue still exist?

I compared it to the latest nightly/monthly builds and I don't have the hissing sound on either of them. It can't be my HDMI cable because I am using an Optical cable.

Seems like some nice work was done. Cheers.

I'd like to change my XBMC (Eden, ATV2) so that I can adjust the volume. I see that there's a patch released. How exactly do I apply it?

@Ferdi-T, just install the .deb package and you're good to go with all improvements mentioned above. The patch files are only useful for someone who wants to build this Eden version on his own. ;)

Thanks for the reply. Should I just update using

Code:

apt-get update
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2

or should I be doing something else?

Nyet.

That will install mainline Eden build, not this one.

You'll have to wget this package, then dpkg install it.

And yes, I am too lazy to fully instruct

*update* erm. Since this is a custom build thread, this post seems rather foolish. The script is great, it just doesn't apply to this custom build. Sorry.

ios faq ... the only correct instructions for doing it right. Just exchange the url of the deb file to this one from this thread here.

Really strange. I haven't met or noticed this issue. Does this hissing sound occur with everything or only specific video files? I will look into the audio decoder.

Thanks for your script.I think it is easier to install my custom build.
SSH into your ATV2 as root and use scripts:

Upgrade from official build:

Code:

cd /tmp
curl -O http://yangapp.googlecode.com/files/org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_11.0-yang~3_iphoneos-arm.deb
dpkg -i org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_11.0-yang~3_iphoneos-arm.deb
reboot

Or newly install: (Script from official wiki)

Code:

cd /tmp
apt-get install wget
wget -O- http://apt.awkwardtv.org/awkwardtv.pub | apt-key add -
echo "deb http://apt.awkwardtv.org/ stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awkwardtv.list
echo "deb http://mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/atv2 ./" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbmc.list
apt-get update
mkdir -p /Applications/AppleTV.app/Appliances
apt-get install curl org.awkwardtv.whitelist com.nito.updatebegone org.xbmc.xbmc-seatbeltunlock
curl -O http://yangapp.googlecode.com/files/org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_11.0-yang~3_iphoneos-arm.deb
dpkg -i org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_11.0-yang~3_iphoneos-arm.deb
mkdir -p /Applications/XBMC.frappliance
reboot

Upgrading works perfectly. Thanks linusyang & Memphiz.

[rdsu]

It's working great...

Thanks

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I can finally adjust my volume directly from my ipad!

I haven't had a lot of time to play with my ATV2 lately, but wanted to say that this has saved anime for the ATV2 (for those who don't want to use nightlies). So far I haven't had any crashes or issues. Very nice. I'm tempted to just start pointing to this built in the FAQ for anyone who needs to use stylized subtitles and/or volume control.

Really loving this build compared to the recent nightlies. Only thing missing is the new audio engine.

[Acrobat76]

I`m running this build and really loving it too. Only (minor) hiccup which i THINK is due to this build is that I cant seem to get rid of the info overlay when playing music in fullscreen with artist slideshow. Pressing the select button on the remote doesn't get rid of the info overlay in fullscreen. It remains there. Same goes when trying to using the xbmc commander iphone app. The info command doesnt work and the info overlay remains.

Any clues please?

[logictester]

great build - would it be possible to add the new confluence skin to it?

[danfozzy]

+1 on that, really like the new skin on the nightlys and the new media info view 3

[coquex]

I had a lot of crashes when I was watching HD movies (720p).

Now with this version I cant make the ATV 2 crash!!!

Thank you so much!!!!
