"An Apple TV software update is required to use Netflix" Message

Update: We’ve just pushed an update (Maintenance 2.5-18) that will hide the Netflix update prompt.

Stay tuned for more news on a permanent fix.

Thank you. The update message is now gone, and I look forward to more permanent fix within the Netflix app itself perhaps.

Dumb question. How do I apply this Maintenance fix to my jailbroken (using seasonpass) ATV2?

Thanks!

Unfortunately you cannot as maintenance is part of ATV Flash.

Maybe we need to find out more on how Maintenance achieves this to see if/how it can be done without ATV Flash.

SSH to the device as root and run:

apt-get install com.nito.netflix.tweak

Hi, are there any other options?

I also get “Couldn’t find package com.nito.netflix.tweak”

Thanks!

Netfix is now not working at all. Continually getting “content not available message” Any ideas or do I need to update to 6.2 and lose my Infuse on my ATV.

Odd. I am not sure of your setup but you should make sure your Apple TV is properly set up for correct DNS if you are using any proxy servers. I have had that message from Netflix, from configuration issue on my proxy server.
