Hi, thanks for the reply.
You are correct, it is a PPC issue.
None of the options within atvhelper will function correctly.
Unfortunatly, I don't have access to a intel mac.
I've tried both solutions you provided with no luck. with 1. the hash password seems to stall the script each time.
With 2. The pathing does not seem to be picked up correctly within the PPC mac & then the ssh won't work because the hash kills the script.
Hope this helps identify the issue.
In the meantime, is there any way on a PPC mac that I can install the SNV onto my ATV? I've tried the readme and I get errors also at particular points.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for posting your builds Tsf42m. I can't seem to have any digital out working though :-( I'd give my pinky to get digital out atm. BTW Plex does give digital out, but I'd like to use XBMC if possible for stability reasons.
Thanks again! Please suggest any kind of fix for digital out, I'd love to hear what I can try.

The size of this build must have been a bit larger than previous. I ran out of room on the AppleTV System partition as the helper was writing XBMC.app out to the /Application folder.
I removed the Software Menu and Couch Surfer from my Finder.app, however, did not seem to free up enough space.
I moved the Boxee.app package out to my local area, then it ran fine. I was able to move Boxee.app back into its original place after the install and it seemed to work OK, but I am right on the edge for space. My configuration is below, so if you have any ideas for freeing up more system space, that would be great.
AppleTV 2.3.1
Boxee
XBMC
NitoTV with smart install
Launcher 2.3
Fonts to support Firefox in /Library/Fonts
EDIT:
Also Includes:
In /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
AdobePDFViewer.plugin RealPlayer Plugin.plugin
Flash Player.plugin Silverlight.plugin
Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.plugin flashplayer.xpt
Move_Media_Player.plugin nsIQTScriptablePlugin.xpt
In /System/Library/Frameworks:
CoreAudioKit.framework

move XBMC.app from /Applications to /Users/frontrow/Applications
sudo ln -s /Users/frontrow/Applications/XBMC.app /Applications/XBMC.app
done. the power of symbolic links.

Hi,
Yes, when I do that and then try to execute xbmc from the atv menu, it just flashes up the apple logo twice and then reverts to the atv menu. the xbmc app does not seem to execute.
When I restore the xbmc build which patchstick download 'A1', it works again fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks
