The fine folks from Firecore have been hard at work on their aTV Flash (black) package for jailbroken AppleTVs and have just released a new update that allows all-new firmware backup options, new localizations for our international readers, and playback enhancements.
The Apple TV is an incredibly inexpensive way to easily get all your iTunes music and videos onto your big screen HDTV, along with special channels like Netfix, but you only get support for Apple's own file formats, and for channel parters they select. Jailbreaking and using aTV Flash (black) opens up entirely new worlds beyond Apple.
If you're looking for the full change log, you'll find it past the break. If you really don't need the full details and just want to get yourself updated, version 1.3 is available now from the Firecore website
Need help jailbreaking your Apple TV 2? If so, be sure to check out our full how-to guide today!

Serious question I've done this and got it to work but can the water seep into the camera through the edges of the camera hole? Curious how sealed that is.. This seems like the sort of thing that could ruin the whole phone in a second and you'll look like a huge idiot for trying. But. I don't know if I can resist..
I had to change the name of my iPhone and then reboot it for the hotspot to show up again, why the heck that works I don't even know.
I bought my MBP barley used from someone and they have set their name as I guess the root user and their name appears next to the little house icon in finder. Also, the app store icon on the dock shows an update available for this users twitter account. It's driving me nuts! How do I get rid of this fool's name off my computer entirely?!?!? I have set myself as the admin but can't seem to get his name out of finder. I don't want him having any association with this computer. It's a MBP mid 2011 running Lion thanks!
