I have XBMC installed on my ATV2.

When I play my .MKV files, the subtitles appear at the bottom of my screen.

Is there a way to shut them off?

hold "select" (center button) for a few seconds, select audio submenu and turn them off.

is there a way to have them off by default? I didn't see anything in the settings but perhaps a config file somewhere?

amet · 2011-02-17, 23:02

in a same menu, "set default for all movies"

I've seemed to of lost the ability to do this. Holding the center button just interprets as a single button press. Anyway to get it back?

Unless you were playing with the keymap.xml files, I am not sure how you lost that ability as well. However, give the ATV2 a reboot and see if that works again for you.

Is there also a way to set a default subtitle language?

**dazex** · 2011-02-18, 01:19

I thought I saw default subtitle language in the system settings. Maybe one of the submenus under System/Appearance?

I have no idea how i've lost it. I was setting it up, installed xTV SAF skin configured everything, then found that i could no longer do it.

I've tried rebooting. Clearing userdata..Unistalling/Reinstalling XBMC. Cant get it back..

If there no simple fix. Not really a big deal, if i need to get into any extra menus, i just use my Andrioid remote on my phone.

I will probably be re-flashing my ATV2 at some point as I hear the untethered jailbreak is out. Im going to assume a re-flash will fix it Smile

Yeah, if you haven't updated to the untethered jailbreak, you should do it. Especially since GreenPois0n, PwanageTool are compatible with ATV2.

I wonder if the xTV installed some sort of joystick.AppleRemote.xml under your keymap folder.

I switched skins a while back (can't remember which one) and noticed that holding the middle button didn't work as advertised. I had to switch to the default confluence and then it worked again.

Didnt think of that. Ill check when i get home.

That worked like a charm. AppleTV and XBMC is all new to me, just jumped in and bought it a few days ago.

I installed the untethered jailbreak from GreenPois0n with no problems.

Swapping out all my Western Digital TV (WDTV) for ATV2 now.

This thing is great !
