If you Quit XBMC, the LaunchAgent will just restart it. The instructions in my comment above, i.e. typing the same commands you did to install this, but substituting 'load' with 'unload' will completely remove the auto-load. If it doesn't, you typed something wrong. <strong>Update</strong>: Seems I was wrong!… See the new instructions I provided here to uninstall: http://www.pommepause.com/blog/2009/07/auto-start-xbmc-on-apple-tv-boot/#comment-161 You won’t be able to go back to the Finder using this.

Followed the steps provided. Worked like a charm to get XBMC to launch on boot. However, I cannot close xbmc and return to the Finder it just freezes XBMC. I cannot uninstall using the info provided. Any help would be useful. Thanks. Hi. Followed the steps provided. Worked like a charm to get XBMC to launch on boot. However, I cannot close xbmc and return to the Finder it just freezes XBMC.
