Did you configure Launcher to download SSHCS builds with the following command?:

Code:
defaults write com.teamxbmc.xbmclauncher XBMCAdditionalDownloadPlistURLs -array http://www.sshcs.com/xbmc/Info.asp

If yes, then you are set to go. The Launcher (make sure its version 3.2.1) should have the option to download an XBMC version that will reference a build number. When a new build is made available on sshcs.com, it will show up in the Launcher.
NOW: AppleTV+CrystalHD PREVIOUS: HTPC and XBOX (both loudly running XBMC)

Yeah- I got that going on, but they are The Questor's builds unless I am mistaken. The new build-bot builds should have a different play list i think.

I'd like the build-bot builds on the launcher update screen too...

I updated by hand yesterday in the end - only to realise the build bot versions don't have CrystalHD support - doh!



p.s. many thanks to davilla and The Questor (and XBMC team!) for all their continuing efforts and support. CHEERS GUYS Big Grin

As far as I know Questor's have CrystalHD other don't
So if you want CrystalHD you have to stay as you are and update from Launcher

If I was a microsoft advert I could tell you that was 'cause of me.

Thankfully that isn't the case.

I have configured launcher and added the SSHCS URL. I was also able to download and install the most recent nightly build successfully.
do you still need to install the drivers as per the instructions on blogythefox.co.uk? I was under the impression that these were included in these nightly builds?
anyway, under render method, the broadcom card does not show up. I read somewhere that that means that the BCM-card is either not installed or broken. I have 2 BCM cards with which this has happened.

driver/lib/firmware are not included in nightly builds, they are not part of XBMC per say. Nightly builds will detect if present and then enable crystalhd as a render setting.

thanks!
I cyberducked the files into the aTV and putty'd as per instructions (had to do it in a windows VM, in OSX terminal this didn't work out) only to realize that my aTV had updated to 3.0.1 Sad
I haven't been able to get the patchstick to work on this version, is it just me or should I disable updating altogether?

oh well, factory restore once again it is....

Thanks to this how-to I managed to succesfully update my xbmc with the 'TheQuestor' nighties.

I recently read the post about updating with the official xbmc.org nighties http://www.xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=67078

How can I change my ATV so updates will be received from http://mirrors.xbmc.org/nightlies/osx?

Adding an extra updates results in an error.
