Problems with XBMC on ATV2
#1
Before I begin yes I have read the sticky and edited the host file.. today I just updated to 4.3.1 Jailbreak.. I mainly use XBMC for the Youtube video addon for HD music vids. Well I tried playing one and to my surprise it brought me right back to the home screen each time. So I came on here looking for a solution, but still have no luck? I downloaded updateblocker and edited the host file the videos still crash and bring me home.. Is there any hope at all?

Because you are running 4.3.1 and trying to play HD files you need a xbmc build that is optimized for 4.3.
The new nightly builds supplied by Keith have hardware acceleration for 4.3...you can find info on installing one of those on pages 8-11 here:

Those who jailboke with pwnagetool on 4.3.1 have audio problem. I heard that a new version of pwnagetool fixed this issue? Not certain about that last bit. However, SeasonPass supposedly works without the audio or smb issue.

I used sn0wbreeze so that was most likely the problem? >_>

BTW, updatebegone and editing the host file is to prevent the Apple update prompt from occuring and crashing you out of XBMC. However, since you are already on 4.3.1, your crashes are definitely not related to the update prompt.

I know previous version of Snowbreeze had issues. The current version of snowbreeze may have the same issue as PwnageTool. I thought I read that somewhere today. Also, I have heard that SnowBreeze is PwnageTool for window. So perhaps that possible lineage brings with it the same issues?

Give SeasonPass a try and see if it works out better for you.

I think the dev-team updates for their jb tools are just for animated boot logos *sigh* ...
