MediaTomb and XBMC on JB Apple TV
#1
Hi Folks,

Thanks for any help in setting this up. I was able to jailbreak my apple tv, but now I'm having trouble setting up a UPnP server to actually have any music to play! I've installed mediatomb, added music to library through it's http interface and added it as source inside of XBMC. I can browse through my music on XBMC, but when I select an Mp3, no sound comes out. The timer gets up to 1 second and then the XBMC screen locks.

I only tried to start a UPnP server because I wasn't able to add any music through the xbmcs web interface. I was able to browse to it, but when I select the "Music" button, the loading circle starts spinning into infinity.

It says my version is pre-11.0.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Go with Samba shares over upnp...NFS even better if you have other *nix's in the house.

Your ATV should work fine with SMB.

I used Mediatomb for PS3 back in the day, but Samba and NFS much are 0 maintenance once setup.
If I helped out pls give me a +

A bunch of XBMC instances, big-ass screen in the basement + a 20TB FreeBSD, ZFS server.
