[AppleTV] Remote control menus not working after upgrade Apple TV to XBMC 9.11

a12v13 Wrote:I though I was going crazy with this. The option for contextmenu doesnt work with any button on the appletv in fullscreen mode. The context menu works in all the other sections but not whne you are streaming video. Is there anyway to downgrade your installation or to re-install XBMC 9.04. Thanks everyone for all the info.

Mind posting your modified xml?
you can also ssh into your ATV and watch what key-presses Launcher receives by typing
Code:
tail -f /Library/Logs/Console/501/console.log

The biggest issue for me is that without being able to get to the ODS menu with the Apple remote there is no way for me to get rid of subtitles. If I had a different way I'd be ok too, but most my movies have subtitles I don't want displayed.

I have the same problem here. I have tried changing the joystick.Appleremote.xml trying to get the contextmenu to work but no matter what button I assign it still doesnt work. If I hold the center key on the remote I get the same symptom, XBMC reboots.

Okey, please recap. It's seems that Play_hold isn't recognized by Launcher/XBMC and instead sent to the ATV, which sends it to Standby. I can't reproduce this here on ATV v3.01

Does someone seeing this problem mind posting complete information about this? Complete as in:
- ATV version
- How was it patched (atv-usb-creator, ...)
- console.log (clicking around, hold Play button)
- xbmc.log

Thanks in advance,
mdd

- ATV version is 2.0
- How was it patched (atv-usb-creator, ...)- patch via usb-creator
- console.log (clicking around, hold Play button)
- xbmc.log

is there anyway to attache files instead of sending long psots? I will try to send the console.log and xbmc.log tonight. I also wanted to try upgrading the aptv to version 3.x and patching it. is this known to work? will I have the same probelm. I rather go back to xbmc 9.04 if possible.

Thank You

Hey a12v13,

thanks for the update!

uhm, that one is quite old, and might have some problems. Sorry, none here to test with :/

sure, just paste them to your favorite pastebin (pastebin.com, pastebin.ca, ...) and link to them here.

depending on the platform you're using to create the patchstick there's more or less manual work needed (think the OSX version of atv-usb-creator has still an old&incompatible Launcher version). If you still have your old patchstick, just use that one, it should work. After patching the 3.x, ssh in and install Launcher manually, then download XBMC and you should be ready to go.

naaah, forwards is the right direction... Wink

Modifying the joystick.Appleremote.xml worked. I can get to the OSD menu again Smile I usually don't use Volume Down on the Appleremote anyways. Thanks for the tip.

You are welcome.

I solved my problem by myself:

<MyVideoFiles>
<joystick name="AppleRemote">
<button id="4">ContextMenu</button> <------------
<button id="6">ParentDir</button>
<button id="7">Info</button>
<button id="8">ContextMenu</button> <-------------

I use vertical file list,now i can access again to contextmenu pressing "right button".
Hold menu doesn't work,i have the new aluminium Apple remote,maybe no compatibility?

The windows version is a one-shot solution, while the Mac version still needs manual install of Launcher.

Still:
If anyone is interested to get this solved properly, please post console.log.

I upgraded the appletv to version 3.01 and it looks very nice. But the problem I have now is creating the patchstick using windows. I donloaded the atv-win zip file, installed the app but when I create the patchstick it doesnt boot to it. i think I am missing the step to crete the boot option using mk-atv-xbmc.bat or using mk-atv-xbmc-ssh.bat but I cant seem to find these files anywhere in my downloaded zip files. I found the section that explains ho to make the patchstick using these two batch files and then install the rest of the image in the patchstick using the utility. I also tried to install the Loader manually, I was able to ssh into the box, upload the files but I am missing the command line to install loader. Anyone input?

Thank You
