losing your xbmc settings. seems to be an issue with older atv1200 boxes. i think the ones bought in the last few months dont have this issue.

anyway, try using xbmc menus to exit xbmc before you power off your box. that may help.

also try waiting for 20 seconds after you see the android screen, before you open xbmc. the box needs time to get the sdcard ready.

also, make a copy your entire xbmc folder as a backup. in case it keeps happening. or use the xbmc backup addon. or just cope the guisettings.xml file. that is the one that has your skin customisations and skin layout info in it, and i think that is the only thing that is getting lost.

when it happens to me i just close xbmc and copy my backup guisettings file back into the xbmc folder and open xbmc.

Thank you very much for your help. Also , can you please explain a little bit detail of how to use guisettings.xml? . I used xbmc back up addon. But background picture havent been remained.
