Thumbs Up  it's easier than that Post: #3
You don't need to modify anything any more.

Simply Update launcher to 3.2.1 & in the launcher 'settings' menu, you can change the direct boot order.

Choose XBMC, then reboot the xbmc.

HTH's.

Worth to mention... in case of autoboot, you loose the "learned" remote keys.

ssh into your atv and make command:

Quote:defaults write com.teamxbmc.xbmclauncher XBMCExpertMode 1
you should have the hidden menu visible
