    Question Error: XBMC/Boxee exited with status: 4

    I was using my ATV with Boxee last night watching a movie. When I was done I put ATV in Standby mode. Today I go to use my ATV and every time I try to use Boxee and browse my local SMB shares, I get the list of shares and files. But seconds after I try to view any movie the ATV seems to restart the Finder and then the following message appears on screen...

    Error: XBMC/Boxee exited with status: 4

    WHat is going on and what does this mean?
    I've rebooted the ATV, but I get the same result. I even reinstalled the Boxee hack with Patchstick again. Am I missing something? How can I completely reset my ATV and install Boxee and clear this up?

    I have had this problem before and if you go into the Settings menu and then click on Video, try un-checking the option that says something like "generate thumbnails for videos without posters" (I'm not exactly sure what it says without being in front of my setup, but its something like that). By un-checking that, boxee hasn't crashed for me, so give it a try.

    so then, does one get thumbnails for videos without art if this option is turned off?

    actually, i still have this problem with this version on atv 2.41. it seems to happen on any folder with too many files it has to generate thumbnails for. at least that's what's i'm gathering from my situation.

    and it's doing even with the "no thumbs" option turned off.

    I can't even load Boxee, since it's trying to load a thumbnail on the home screen and crashing within a couple of seconds with the above code. This is using the latest version.

    Is there some way I can toggle that setting without going in to Boxee itself?
