So since the last update my AppleTV will lock up when it has been idle for an extended period of time. It will have dimmed the screen like normal, but it isnt responsive to any remote commands. The light on the front of the unit blinks like it normally does when i press a command on the remote. But it wont do anything on the screen. It just sits there dimmed in the last state it was in. To get it working again it requires me to pull the power plug for a total reboot.

Now the unit does not do this when im in Frontrow... just in XBMC. Is there a setting or something that I may have missed?

Thanks

Yes... Telling us what versions of Launcher, XBMC and ATV you are running might be helpful. Also what state are the remote control options in? (Not saying that I know the answers, necessarily, but without some pointers, no-one can help. See the sticky - posting about problems in a useful manner - http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=47124 )

Sorry about that.. I just checked last night and launcher and XBMC are both the latest stable releases. I dont know the version numbers off the top of my head. As far as the remote control options. I have not touched anything in that area. So they are the default settings that come with a initial install.
