as the title says, do not upgrade your iOS to 4.3 and expect the XBMC to work on it, some features might work (divx/avi playback) but no HD content will work as the HW decoder API calls have changed
EDIT:
Davilla has done it again! We have hardware acceleration on iOS 4.3 now to again. 3 cheers for Davilla!
Right now, it's only available on the unofficial nightlies.
Remember, we still don't allow jailbreak talk.
EDIT2:
to install nightlies on 4.3 build follow the instructions below:
PRE INSTALL for ATV: (based off http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Ins...MC_on_ATV2)
