[atv-bootloader] USB patchstick mounting fat32 filesystem

2011-06-18 Thread Bharath Ramesh
I was wondering if it is possible to mount a fat32 filesystem using the patchstick. I was thinking it might be better if I could back it up into a fat partition so that I could then mount that partition in Windows 7 and back up the internal hard drive files to my external drive. When I try to

AFAIK nvidia drivers 100.14.19 and 100.14.23 are the only set of drivers that support hdmi audio. If my understanding of the problem is right this has to do something with the way apple tv actually adds audio to the hdmi signal. I believe that is actually being performed by the SIL HDMI
