Installing XBMC

The current stable release of XBMC for iOS is v11 (Eden).

From the command line

After XBMC is successfully installed, the ATV2 will restart, and XBMC should then be available as an option in the ATV2's main menu
This is the same build installed from the nitoTV menu, if installed.
  1. Open up your terminal/ssh application and enter the following command to log in to your ATV2. Note, you need to replace "YOUR.ATV2.IP.ADDRESS" with the IP address of the Apple TV: 
    ssh [email protected]
  2. You will be asked for a password: default password is alpine
  3. Continue to enter the following commands:
  4. Issue these commands in your Terminal window, in sequence: 
    apt-get install wget
    wget -O- http://apt.awkwardtv.org/awkwardtv.pub | apt-key add -
    echo "deb http://apt.awkwardtv.org/ stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awkwardtv.list
    echo "deb http://mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/atv2 ./" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbmc.list

ATV iOS 5.0

With the tethered jailbreak of the ATV2 running ATV iOS 5.0, testing has started on getting XBMC to run on it. See this XBMC forum post for download and instructions for the 5.0 test build.

Editor note: At a point where we can make more formal instructions for iOS 5.0? Seems mostly stable.

  1. Open up your terminal/ssh application and enter the following command to log in to your ATV2: 
    ssh [email protected]
  2. You will be asked for a password: default password is alpine
  3. Continue to enter the following commands:

Change history: trac timeline or commit history

NOTE: You MUST install the stable version (see above) before you can install a nightly build. You only need to install the stable version once and you don't need to uninstall previous versions to upgrade (or downgrade) XBMC.
