This is quite interesting hacking experience.

I managed to get the SSH working and it is pretty cool when you can access the ATV drive using Fugu or Terminal (via SSH). Figured though that the instructions on http://wiki.awkwardtv.org/wiki/Install_SSH_with_Leopard where what I needed to follow instead of the ones on Install SSH link.

Installed Perian as per instructions on http://wiki.awkwardtv.org/wiki/Install_Perian and also ran ATVFiles-1.1.1.run.sh on ATV.

Loaded a 720p xxx.DivX file, a MKV file and a standard divx encoded file... none of these play.

QUESTIONS:
1) Am I missing anyting?
2) Could I have copied/installed the codecs like Perian in a wrong location.

Once I get this working, I am going to post my version of guide.
