Hi there!

When I bought my Apple TV it came with ios 4.2.1 (4.1.1). I jailedbreaked the other day with seasonpass which I download from a site where there where a tutorial to jailbreak 4.2.1 (4.1.1).

When I started using xbmc I had alot of problems with AC3 (dolby digital) and DTS throughput. I just got some static sound. I tried everything on the site to fix the problem, because I knew that I had jailbraked 4.2.1.

When I could not fix it, I though I would rejailbreak with Greenpoison instead. That when it hit me. Itunes said that I had ios 4.3 installed on my atv. :-O
So I started seasonpass again. And in the preferensens it said that ios 4.3 was the default option. I tried alot of seasonpass downloads, but they all wanted to install ios 4.3. :-( So basically I got tricked into installing 4.3 instead of 4.2.1.
Goddamnit.

There is a solution though.

1. Follow the tutorial by toshiba1 here:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=94394&page=2
This will get you your shsh blobs for 4.2.1 even though you are on 4.3.

2. Start the TSS server in tiny umbrella and restore 4.2.1 downloaded from apple

3. Download latest greenpoison and jailbreak.

4. SSH into your atv2 (while you're at it, change ssh password)

5. Uninstall nitotv.
apt-get remove com.nito.nitotv

6. Install xbmc with the tutorial here:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Ins...MC_on_ATV2
If there is a problem during the installation process, just run this command: "apt-get -f install" and try again.

7. Download and install latest_atv2.deb from here
http://hadm.net/~keith/xbmc_atv2/
(ftp it over to your atv2, then install with dpkg -i latest_atv2.deb)

8. Go to settings - system - sound, choose optical or hdmi, make sure that ac3 and dts is selected

9. Enjoy your atv2 with xbmc which now has AC3 and DTS throughput. :-D

I was not sure how to handle this... all JB posts are going to off-topic.

I am sorry that you had to put all JB stuff into it as other stuff is very useful, even though we have it in a sickies
