I JB'd my ATV2 again (so I can reboot my ATV2 tetherless with iOS 5.01)

No longer able to download subtitled from my ATV2/XBMC menu (actually, the subtitle file would go into our NAS.. our library is sync'd through MySQL). I suspect there is issue with write permissions on the ATV2, so I "chown mobile:mobile" on userdata folder, but that didn't seem to do the trick.

Here's the pastebin:

Help?

The problem in the pastebin file is around line 1175

Yup, maybe it's full, or chown didnt work, make sure you do:

Code:

chown -R mobile:mobile /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/

Wish it was that simple. permissions appears correct, and disk isn't full either:

Anyone? I'm stumped..

ls -al /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/addon_data/
ls -al /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/addon_data/script.xbmc.subtitles/

Check that the folder where you have your movies is writable, I had that problem before, I had my movies on a USB HD on a remote computer that was not writeable by xbmc,

Doubtful that is the issue. The folder (on NAS) where I have my movies/subtitles are writeable - I'm able to download subtitle toward that folder from XBMC on my Macbook Pro with no issue after all. For some reason, couldn't do it from XBMC on AppleTV (used to be able to, not anymore since I updated it to "untethered" boot)

Weird.. it shows XBMC Subtitles is enabled on my AppleTV, yet there's no addon_data/script.xbmc.subtitles folder? Should I expect to see one there?

[darthdiablo]

I explored a bit (did search for "*subtitles*"), and did find it in some folders:

Correct setup or bad setup?

[amet]

Code:

mkdir /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/addon_data/script.xbmc.subtitles/

Code:

mkdir /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/addon_data/script.xbmc.subtitles/

Additionally, in case others come across this thread, one also need to do this (since they probably logged in to their AppleTV via root account)

chown -R mobile:mobile /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/addon_data/script.xbmc.subtitles/
