Hi,

I have a jailbroken ATV2 running XBMC, when I add devices in Roomie, it recognises XBMC, am I right in assuming this is XBMC running on ATV?

When adding the device it asks for a username and password, I don't know what to enter here.

If I ignore the username and password I cant control XMBC on the ATV2 with Roomie

Thanks

XBMC usually is configured with a username and password. We're not familiar with that particular XBMC incarnation, but it's very likely you need to set the XBMC authentication parameters and you may need to add it via Manual IP on the configured port in XBMC's settings as well.

Thank you.
