[AppleTV] Launcher 3.0 release - MaestroDD - 2009-04-05
Launcher 3.0 available via Downloads -> Launcher 3.0 on ATV
This version is provided as update for 0.9 and 2.3 users and thus combines the 2 different versions of Launcher. Default mode is the behaviour of Launcher 0.9, so no direct-boot into XBMC possible.
What's new:
- combined 0.x and 2.x series
- added support for learned remotes
- fixed universal remote support
Notes:
- with Babylon alpha1 we started to install XBMC to ~/Applications instead of /Applications
- if enabled, MultiFinder.app is used from Launcher's bundle instead of install to /Applications
Known issues in MultiFinder-mode:
1) No WLAN support if directly booted into XBMC/Boxee
2) No support of paired remotes and remotes added through AppleTV's
"Learn Remote"-menu
For complete set of changes see README.txt or the changelog
Enabling MF-mode still possible (but not recommended) with:
Code:
defaults write com.teamxbmc.xbmclauncher XBMCExpertMode 1How to Install:
1) Check the Launcher update menu entry and update or 2) download from http://atv-xbmc-launcher.googlecode.com and manually install.
Thanks for testing the betas!
Enjoy!

Top job MaestroDD. I switched my Info.plist file back, updated to Launcher 3 and all is running smooth with the custom remote stuff.
Thanks for the hard work. If there is anything else you require testing please let me know.

Hi,
have upgraded from Launcher 3.0 beta5 from Frontrow. No problems I can report so far (or can reproduce
). Hey, great work!!!
Experts, just a side question: if I understand correctly how Launcher works now there is no way of auto-launching XBMC and having the learned buttons kept. Just hoping for some workaround.
Usecase is following: I could use ATV for listening to music controlled by iPhone without TV to be switched on.
I can also use ATV for watching movie collection with advanced buttons in use.
Thanks in advance. -sircube

granted i have no idea how it works, but is there no way to just have an applescript or something that launches xbmc once the launcher loads?
