Now it works but it seems to be something wrong with the driver. Got this answer when checking it.

bash-2.05b# kextstat | grep crystalhd
bash: kextstat: command not found

does doesnt mean, that the driver has a problem. the shell cannot find the command kextstat.

try

Code:

/usr/sbin/kextstat

Sorry Im a Mac/AppleTV newbie so I have a basic question... can I just FTP to the Apple TV using the ATV's IP address and frontrow/frontrow as UN/PW, or is there a special program to upload things to the ATV?

you need to use sftp. ftp daemon is not enabled by default. i assume you have an already patched atv? (used a patchstick?)

Yeah patched, ssh enabled, XBMC and Boxee installed. Still waiting on my CrystalHD cards to arrive. Thanks for the info and for the installer.

Thanks for the installer. CrystalHD working great on my appletv.
I used these commands to install, no need for sftp. Login once, retrieve the installer and run it.

ssh frontrow@appletv.local
wget http://overlord.fh-salzburg.ac.at/~asart...install.sh
sudo bash sa_crystal_install.sh

Just wanted to drop a line to thank andy for putting this package together.

For those of us that aren't incredibly comfortable in the world of terminal commands, kextloading, etc, this was a lifesaver. Between your work and some great instructional pics on installing the broadcom card from another member, I was able to get the card installed and up and running on 1080p content on my ATV in under an hour total.

Now, I get the feeling that installing my other card in my old 1.66 GHz Mini will be a somewhat more painful proposition, but I digress.

Thanks again!! Smile

a new great update will be released today. it will be even more easier to install the driver!
