[appletv1] No video from xbmc at higher resolutions
#1
I am running a first gen AppleTV. the only mod was adding the launcher and nito. No hardware modifications.

XBMC, Boxee and the atv have been running with no issues on a CRT tv using component video.

I just upgraded to a Vizio 47" LCD tv. No matter what resolution I run the AppleTV at, when I go into XBMC I lose all video. I know it boots into XBMC because I can hear the different sounds. I have tried both HDMI cables and Component video.

When I have the ATV hooked up to the CRT tv, I can go into XBMC and I try to adjust the video settings, but the Display option does not change from 720x480.

Here are my logs

there wasn't a Console log.

Launcher is 3.2.5. XBMC is 10.1 (and was before also) and I just did the update to see if that would fix it.

Boxee works fine.

Thanks

edit you guisettings.xml and reset the video display size.

I can't seem to find it.

I looked here

/mnt/Scratch/Users/frontrow/.xbmc

and there isn't anything except a temp folder with another temp folder inside and a weather folder.

I couldn't see it anywhere else either.

Ok, I found the file here

/mnt/Scratch/Users/frontrow/Library/Application Support/XBMC/userdata

Here is the contents.

I think this is the section to change, but I'm not sure of the settings.

I realized it must not have saved the changes I tried to make.

I was able to get the video going by changing the xml file.

Thanks for your help.
