From my understanding image files (.iso) are yet supported on this version
Im guessing your device is jailbroken and XBMC actually starts?

I thought MakeMKV is used to rip bluray movies. I don't think it's a software that runs in XBMC.
XBMC generally has the ability to run ISO formats. But the current release of XBMC of IOS has that functionality disabled anyways.
Anyways, you probably want to stay away from putting anything in the native Apple file structure/folders. For XBMC to recognize things, you'll have to drop it in areas where XBMC can read.
To echo jok3r's question, your ATV2 is jailbroken and XBMC is installed and running?

I am wondering if this is going to be possible at all with this branch of XBMC.. it takes a lot of resources to mount an iso and stream it (especially a high bitrate), idk if the apple tv is up to the challenge... We shall see once more code gets commited after most of the base code is fixed..
