Thanks I didn't have it updated. Now do you know how to add all the movie channels ? like Ic*f*lms? I used to have my unit jailbroken with everything installed but it crashed and I have to do it again.

Yes put in a blank drive, wait for it to complete unplug ur atv then put drive in the back and plug in, wait for the penguin thing to finish then remove the drive and reboot

 

[Cheoykell04]

when i look for usb creator.it gives me two options? i have windows 7....?do i pick atv-win which is apple tv patchstick creator? and do i have to reformat usb flash drive to fat32?

The Intel/PPC OSX version of atvusb-creator.

The Windows XP/Vista interim solution atv-win

 

[Krankie882]

Windows version , and yes format to fat 32 as the guide states

ok cool thank you guys for the help..got it now..whats the best way to install xbmc and to install the add-ons?

 

[Krankie882]

You're patch stick will have the ability to download xbmc , and install it for you , install fusion , install xbmchub repo , install xbmchub maintenance , use this to install all repos , go to all add ons and install all add ons you want ,

 

[Cheoykell04]

ok so i jailbroke it already..you said i can download xbmc with patchstick..what exactly do i have to do with pathstick to download xbmc..

 

[Krankie882]

If you have already used the patch stick you will see launcher on your home screen , go to downloads and select Eden build of xbmc , it will download and install , once completed select xbmc under the launcher menu and xbmc will now load

 

[Cheoykell04]

thank you so much...worked great...now installing fusion..

 

[Krankie882]

You're flying , grab the xbmchub repo , install it , then grab xbmchub add on from within it , then use it to install all repos , then reboot , and finally install all the plugins you want
