Hi:

On my apple tv with XBMC it only shows videos that begins from letter "S" to "W". All of my videos (avi;mp4) are on the same folder (/Movies under user frontrow) but for some reason XBMC just show the last ones of the directory. Anyone knows what the problem is?

Thanks,

ssh in and check the ~/Movies directory for a bad symlink to XBMC that was made during install of XBMC for Mac. The installer should have removed it but that depends on when you did the install/update of XBMC for Mac.

Can you pls be more specific? What should I look for.
Everything seems normal in the directory. There is no link to XMBC.... and I install XMBC trough the appletv.

ssh into atv

command is "ls -l /Users/frontrow/Movies/XBMC"

if this symlink exists then delete it

"sudo rm /Users/frontrow/Movies/XBMC"

that means my guess is wrong and that's not your problem.

do a "ls -l /Users/frontrow/Movies/*" and paste the output to http://www.pastebin.com and post the URL here.

you have several symlinks. that's what the "->" means in the directory listing.

Quote:/Users/frontrow/Movies/BSNES v0.2.9 -> /Volumes/BSNES v0.2.9

does this really exist?

Quote:/Volumes/BSNES v0.2.9
