Not exactly an XBMC issue, but I am having some issues with my ATV and remote and am hoping someone can help....
I have an ATV that I have loaded linux on (to run mythtv) but given all the good mojo that is XBMC decided to convert it back to normal ATV w/XBMC.
I re-imaged the disk using a copy of another ATV I have (properly working with XBMC installed), and the unit boots properly, but it does not seem to respond properly to the remote.
The LED on the front of the unit is white, and blinks when I click the remote, but the frontrow/finder does not actually do anything in response to the clicks. I have gone through the unpair procedure (and the icon to show it is unpaired appears on the screen) and I have also tried to do a factory reset (when I do menu+down it goes through the factory reset, but I cannot 'select' any language from the reset menu).
I can ssh to the unit so I know it has not crashed or anything, and it seems to be receiving signals from the remote, but not passing them through to the s/w or something.
I don't know if this is related or not, but the following appears in the dmesg output:
com_apple_IRRecovery::probe(IR Receiver)
com_apple_IRRecovery:tart(IR Receiver) <1>
com_apple_IRRecovery(0x1990c00):tart
com_apple_IRRecovery(0x1990c00):tart - This is the HID Receiver device, disable recovery
com_apple_IRRecovery(0x1990c00):tart Exiting
com_apple_IRRecovery(0x1990c00):tart - defining AppleIRRecoveryDisabled to disable IR Recovery from occurring (again)
com_apple_IRRecovery(0x1990c00):tart - Intentionally fails, because work is done in start. This frees up resources.
com_apple_IRRecovery:tart(IR Receiver) <1> failed
Thx for any help you can offer on this.
