XBMC won't run on iOS6.x for now. We are trying our best to change this fact but unfortunatly Apple did the same and changed alot for the current ATV2 Software 5.2 (iOS 6.1) which now makes our live hard when it comes to XBMC.

If you want to use XBMC on your ATV2 you need to stay on iOS Version 5.x or below!

XBMC will be working on AppleTV software 4.2.1 (ios4.x), 4.3(ios4.x), 4.4.4(ios4.x), 5.0.2(ios5.x), 5.2(ios6.1) soon Smile. We will push an update to the Frodo Release 12.0 to cydia so that Frodo will be compatible with 5.2 (ios6.1).

Any XBMC reason to update the ATV2 to iOS 6.x? I'm assuming there's less usable memory.
