As the snow starts to melt here in Denver, we're starting to see many of the exciting features that have been under such heavy development over the past few months begin to mature and blossom. Read on for more details on the current state of aTV Flash (black) and what's coming next.
Seas0nPass has been updated to support a tethered jailbreak of the new AppleTV 4.2 (iOS 4.3) software. Big thanks to @nitoTV, @DjayB6, @p0sixninja and @msft_guy for help getting everything together.
What's new in AppleTV 4.2? Should I update?
- AirPlay for apps and websites
- MLB.TV & NBA Game Time live streaming
- Netflix Dolby Digital 5.1
- Other minor improvements and fixes
Today we're happy to release an updated version of Seas0nPass (for Mac) that includes an untethered jailbreak for the AppleTV 4.1.1 (iOS 4.2.1) software. All credit for the untethered jailbreak process goes to the Chronic Dev Team.
Seas0nPass for Windows is also being finalized with the untether and will be available soon.
The latest Beta3 version of aTV Flash (black) is compatible with Seas0nPass, GreenPois0n and Pwnage Tool jailbreaks.
They say ‘no news is good news’ but the truth is ‘no news’ is torture, so it’s time for a progress update.
Seas0nPass for Windows
Happy Friday! Fridays are always a good time for progress updates so read on to see what we've been up to over the past few weeks.
Seas0nPass
Today we're proud to introduce Seas0nPass - a new jailbreak tool designed specifically for the AppleTV.
Seas0nPass was created exclusively for the AppleTV user, as previously no AppleTV specific jailbreak tools were available. Seas0nPass allows you to easily create custom AppleTV IPSW files and restore them in iTunes (similar to the existing Pwnage Tool app). Also included is a simple 'tethered boot' option which aids in using newer AppleTV firmwares when an 'un-tethered' jailbreak is not yet available.
Seas0nPass is available for free, and is open source. The source code is available on Github.
We're pleased to announce, thanks to Remote HD, the 1st gen Apple TV is now able to act as an AirPlay compatible device! With Remote HD installed all the amazing features of AirPlay for the new black Apple TV are now available on the original silver models.
What can I stream?
Merry Christmas Eve! Hopefully by now you've got all your holiday shopping done, but if not, the new AppleTV is becoming a more appealing option with each passing day. Imagine a single, easy to use (sub $100) device that provides unrestricted access to all your current media along with new content from services like Netflix, Last.fm and the iTunes Store. Excited yet? We sure are.
Happy Friday! Today we have a lot of exciting news to share. First off, Beta2 of aTV Flash (black) is now available.

It took a bit longer to complete than anticipated, but it's a great start to what we hope will be a powerful software suite for the new black AppleTV.
During the beta phase we will be working to improve current features and add new ones, so we would appreciate any feedback you may have. More info on how to submit feedback can be seen near the end of the post.
