Apple TV 2
5.3
jailbroken with xbmc 12.2 and nito tv


3 questions

From what I read on this forum nitotv is not needed so how do i uninstall it? I found several post on how to uninstall xbmc but nothing really on nitotv.

From my search I guess nitotv was a way to get xbmc on atv2 but now its obsolete since I can get xbmc on here using terminal.. right?

I ran the get-add-on command in terminal, following one of the linked wiki, but it comes back saying xbmc is up to date. So how do I get xbmc 12.3?? I want to know how to do this just in case I want to update to Gotham when its out of beta.

Fyi- new to the jailbreak seen, I didnt jailbreak the atv2
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay looks like I know how to get rid of nitotv, just use the program when connected to the apple tv 2 via usb. Still would like to know about the last question though, on how to get xbmc 12.3

here's the wiki on installing xbmc on a ATV2
http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=HOW-TO:Insta...Apple_TV_2

not sure who said it was obsolete but I used nitotv to upgrade to 12.3 on four ATV2. one of them did have a rebooting issue but once I jailbroke it again it worked fine.

I followed the update route per the wiki instructions but I'm still on 12.2. Is there something I'm missing?
