Great Kodi for Apple TV 1, however this updating has been a problem for more than a year… only twice has it actually updated without the following process… usually I wait until the latest version comes out and do a scratch then reinstall. Question, why notify us of update when it Kapoots (sad face upon auto restart) the system?
Apple TV 1 auto update is off (for good reason). I receive a notification that Update is available. I manually update and Kodi goes Kapoot. Fix: well needs to be reinstalled with latest version (eventhough it will then tell me that an update is available). Fortunately I Backed up before starting this nightmare… so after reinstalling from scratch I can restore from my back up.
The update issue has only existed for a couple of weeks.
If you had problems before this then the issue certainly isn’t related.
Good question. Did you search or check the AppleTV category for an answer?
- Login via the command line
- Edit the file
/etc/apt/sources.list - Add the following line:
deb http://apt.osmc.tv jessie-devel main - Run the following commands to update:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot - Your system should have have received the update.
Please see if the issue is resolved.
I also recommend you edit /etc/apt/sources.list again and remove the line that you added after updating. This will return you to the normal update channel.
