How do I go back to stable release? - cable_guy - 2014-04-10

HI all,

Every time I currently do an apt-get upgrade on my system, XBMC is updated and is on version 14 ALPHA. I want to go to the newest stable version, could someone tell me how please?

I opened up my sources.list and I have no XBMC repositories in there, all I have are Ubuntu ones and TVheadend ones

Do this:

Code:
sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:team-xbmc/xbmc-nightly
sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:team-xbmc/unstable
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get remove xbmc xbmc-bin
sudo apt-get install xbmc xbmc-bin

thanks very much, I did your commands and now when it boots when it gets to the stage where it scans TVDB for new content, it hangs the GUI. EDIT: That sounded like I was saying "thanks very much" in a sarcastic way, but I wasn't! just to be clear, I was grateful for the commands!

I can access it via SSH but the menus on screen simply don't work, any ideas please?
