There are a few things that don't quite work right. Playlists, resume and fast forward backwards will crash the system.

Now the question is whether or not to upgrade to .74

resume doesnt work in any appletv version passed 2.1, rewind crashing is an apple bug (you can see it in atvfiles or sapphire or any other plugin that uses apples quicktime playback functions) however playlists should work in any appletv os.

I used nitoTV .73 to enable USB and can run an external USB hard drive (got to 750gigs but 1 terabyte seemed to cause problems) really well. I am a bit unclear as to how to safely unplug the USB drive. Do you just treat it as a network drive and eject it in the same way in nitoTV? I noticed I was getting didn't put the drive away properly in the console (I just unplugged it without doing anything).

What does "repair AppleTV" do in nitoTV?

Finally, is there a way, via logging into the ATV, to track memory usage. I've noticed that mounting too many volumes sometimes forces me to restart the Finder. Perhaps this is also related to the problems with the terabyte drive. After all there is "only" 256megs in the ATV (same as the Popcorn Hour A110 by the way ).

Thank's...ls

yeh ejecting a drive works the same for every type of drive in nitoTV tapping rewind on the remote with the volume should eject it as long as it isnt in use, there will be an error returned if it fails to eject. repair will run diskutil's repair on both the media and osboot partitions (same as i it were running in apples disk utility gui program in mac os x) im pretty certain top can track memory usage (amongst other things) that should be installed i you have run the smart installer at any point. just logging in and typing "top" will get you a pretty extensive list of stats. There are various memory leaks that i've had little luck tamping down (debugging and tracking leaks is a nightmare when devving for the atv) i generally 2 hard drives and probably about 3-4 network volumes mounted at all times and don't really notice too many issues.

Default Function Request

Nito,

I have 1 request for nitoTV:
Could you add a mplayer subtitle font size change to it? You could use only the 3(small, median & big) mplayer predefined font size.

not sure if they have a dynamic function built in to change the subtitle while playing, im pretty sure you can add this line to the mplayer commands (which can be editing in settings / mplayer / MPlayer arguments)

subfont-text-scale=3

(or whatever scale you want 1-3) and it should change the size for you.

Nito,

I am not talking about to change the subtitle while we are playing. It would be a simple bash code to move subtitle fonts files to the right place on the nitoTV options/config screan.

on /Users/frontrow/.mplayer/font/ I have 4(sorry, not 3 as I have said before) folders:
- arial-14
- arial-18
- arial-24
- arial-28

In order to chance the font size I have to copy all the files from the folter to the lower level folder (/Users/frontrow/.mplayer/font/).

Could you implement a change of the font size(copy the files from the font-size-folder to the lower level folder)?

.7 has an issue with the kextload portion of the app...it crashes if you want to go down to any other kext...besides what it starts on.

i pushed out a new 0.7.7 that has this fixed, didn't feel it necessitated a whole new version number since i got it out today. it will still appear in Install Software as a new update (still listed as 0.7.7) good catch.
