I think its unrelated to this ios5.1 thing i fixed here (ios5.1 compatibility is more about how XBMC appears on the screen - 90degree rotated or not ).

Feel free to open a new thread with all needed info (xbmc.log, syslog, crashreporter log and mediainfo - first link in my signature will tell you how to get those).

I guess you started with XBMC on iOS5.1 directly did you? So its not that you've tested these movies with older iOS versions and only the iOS5.1 version crashes right?

Beside that - did you undo these changes to the guisettings.xml you did? Thats important i think to be sure that take3 fixed it and not your changes to the guisettings.xml

Thanks again for your replies. I should have clarified that I have just recently purchased my atv2 and this is my first time running xbmc from it. on ios 5.1. I have run xbmc on several other devices and never had any problems like this. Thie screen is positioned perfectly though, and I thank you kindly for the work you did to port this to ios 5.1 so quickly. I will open up a new thread with my log files and see what happens.

As far as the directions I had no problems at all using PuTTy. (well done)

As far as the guisettings.xml I was never one to try altering these settings. so no worries there. Again I can't tell you how thankful I am for the work you all have done to make this work. I will be sending some dollars your way.
