Template:XBMC wiki toc Requirements:
- To install XBMC for Apple TV (black) you must have a jailbroken Apple TV 2 that is running any ATV iOS between versions 4.1 and 4.4.4
- It is highly recommended to be on an iOS version on or before ATV iOS 4.3
- See here for ATV iOS 5.0
- Look here to find out which version you are currently running.
- If you have any issues, be sure to read the iOS FAQ!

The current stable release of XBMC for iOS is v11 (Eden).
From the command line
- This is the same build installed from the nitoTV menu, if installed.
- 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:
- You will be asked for a password: default password is alpine
- Continue to enter the following commands:
- 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

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.
Updating
Either update through NitoTV or issue the following commands to update:
- Open up your terminal/ssh application and enter the following command to log in to your ATV2:
- You will be asked for a password: default password is alpine
- Continue to enter the following commands:
apt-get update
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2
- You should now have the latest XBMC for ATV2. See here to verify your XBMC version.
Nightly builds
- 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.

http://mirrors.xbmc.org/nightlies/darwin/atv2/xbmc-20111202-6729214-master-atv2.deb
