  • FIXED: Crash that can happen on tvOS during startup

Have you seen this happen more than once? I haven’t been able to reproduce this issue. If it does happen again can you send a diagnostic report?

I installed the beta earlier on a few devices that use a remote dvr and a local dual tuner (for live tv only). If the non-beta app was still installed it would bring up the login page, but if the non-beta app was deleted before installing the beta app it would only show a loading animation indefinitely. This behavior persisted after a force close and a full reboot.

@JMcGuire: When you see the app hang would you mind grabbing the logs from http://<apple-tv-ip>:57000/log and emailing them to [email protected]? I'd like to figure out what's going on here.

Log sent, let me know if you need anything else

I was able to figure out what the issue is and I'll be releasing a new build tomorrow. Thank you for reporting this issue.

Is top row on the tvOS betas working for anyone else? Mine haven’t in a while with these new numerous updates.

Does not work here either. I haven’t noticed since I normally do not keep the beta on top row.

I’ll check it out. Thanks for reporting it.

@AeroR1: @d21mike: I've released a new version that fixes the Top Shelf issue. Let me know if you have any more issues.

That was a quick fix. Works good here.
