Full Version: XBMC Freezing on launch

Apple TV
Launcher 3.1
XBMC 9.11 Alpha1
Install method: Launcher

Whenever I launch XBMC the Apple Logo shows up and it sits there for a few seconds, then it flashes and part of the white menu bar shows up along the top. It freezes here and I have to reboot.

I mentioned that I'm using the latest Alpha, but this has been happening for a bit now with some of the latest SVNs. I can't recall when it first started though.

Before I installed the update (or any SVNs) I backed up the old XBMC and I could successfully launch XBMC. I was hoping the latest Alpha would clear things up, but alas it hasn't.

What ATV version do you have?
What resolution are you running?

First thing I'd do is to move ~/Library/Application\ Support/XBMC out of the way and reinstall XBMC 9.10.alpha1 through Launcher. If it still doesn't work, please post xbmc.log again.

Thanks,

Apple TV 2.3.1 and 1080p

What you suggested worked.

Thanks!

Just wanted to report the exact same issue when installing Camelot on . If I re-install Babylon I'm back in business. I'll try the suggested fix
OK, Got round to trying this. Realised that I can't move the directory via Fugu (i'm guessing elevated permissions thing) and I don't know how to do it via a Terminal. Can anyone help me out with some Terminal Commands I can copy and paste please?

mind posting console.log and xbmc.log?

To move a directory around use
Code:
mv $SOURCE $TARGET
To delete a directory and all of its content do
Code:
rm -r $PATH_TO_DIRECTORY
Keep in mind that spaces need to be escaped with "\", so to remove e.g. "~/Library/Application Support/XBMC" you'll need to do
Code:
rm -r ~/Library/Application\ Support/XBMC
Thank you MaestroDD

Hopefully, this is what you need...unless you need logs prior to putting Babylon back on my ATV?
