Thank you. Should it be 'rm -rf xbmc.frappliance.old'?

Cool thanks. Hopefully I didn't delete the xbmc.frappliance. How can I check if I still have it lol?

Answered my own question.

From the command line I did:

ls

Then this is what came back:

AppleTV.app/ XBMC-ARM.atv2.012411.zip XBMC.frappliance.old/
Cydia.app/ XBMC.frappliance/

So then I did this:

rm -rf XBMC.frappliance.old/

Then did this again:

ls

Now this is what returns:

AppleTV.app/ Cydia.app/ XBMC-ARM.atv2.012411.zip XBMC.frappliance/

Hopefully I did the right thing Shocked

This is why I said this isn't for the non cmd line friendly. Smile

I have added to the photos section on my ATV2 xbmc and it displays the preview thumbnails but when you select a photo the screen is just blank, has anyone else had this issue.

but other than that it works great all music is there by album and movies and tv shows its just the photos section.

plus Iplayer2 plugin works great.

Ok tried the latest testing build and everything smooth apart from the static on ac3. The guisettings file has vanished. Also by turning off surround the inlayer seems to work properly... Fast running video and static over hdmi without it. Don't know if the hdmi issue is linked to librmtp in any way...

Wait, not only do you have static w/ ac3 enabled you also have fast running video when its enabled?

guisettings.xml is at: /mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/guisettings.xml
just like before.

I do not believe the 'hdmi issue' which I assume you mean is the ac3 problem of static and 'fast running video (which only you have ever reported) and librmtp have anything to do with each other.

I'm running the build from the 24th, haven't had a chance to update to the 26th version yet (that's tonights job), but so far it's been great!
Definietly a lot smoother / quicker.
I haven't noticed any problems but will keep playing around tonight.
I also managed to get the Aeon65 skin installed, and that is also running brilliantly with your build!
Keep up the great work !

Thanks! I'll definitely have to check out Aeon65 skin.

meshuga Wrote:Good job finding my iOS build guys! I haven't had a chance to write up instructions, but essentially its:
1) Install xbmc the normal way: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Ins...Phone/iPad
2) Using Filezilla or whatever SCP/SFTP into the device (after enabling openssh) and copy over the XBMC.app from http://music.hadm.net/~keith/xbmc_atv2/X...012611.zip to /private/var/stash/Applications.pwn
3) run xbmc!

Worked for me on an iPad, 4.2.1.

I followed these instructions and all went well.

Thanks.
