Hi everybody,
my xbmc on an Apple TV2 plays everything exept .m4v-files. Unfortunately this is what most of my films are. If I try it crashes to the apple-"desktop".
I searched Google an the site but could not find any suggestions.
Can someone help me?
Thanx

Did you try loading front row, waiting for the update screen confirmation screen and choosing Upate later?
Don't even think about my mother!

Well, if the problem only happens with those files, probably isn't related to the 4.3 update. Can you provide logs and info about the files you are trying to reproduce?

Ok so after stuffing around (as i couldn`t find it in the forum on net) press and hold ok button on atv remote to get the sub menu up and i disabled and now .mkv and large .m4v play but they are still buffering all the time. Just not watchable so if any suggestion from anyone i would appreciate it. Smaller m4v play ok.
