Is there a trick to getting the update?
I've tried:
1) going to http://www.amazon.com and requesting the current version be delivered, and
2) going to setting/my account/sync on the firetv, and
3) rebooting the firetv.

after all of that I'm still on MRMC 2.6GIT:2016-08-10-54AB06E

I do have my fireOS held at 5.0.5. Could that be causing a problem?

Thanks guys.

If you already have MrMC there, it should update. Nothing was changed regarding manifest.

EDIT: should be MrMC 2.6 Git:2016-09-11-311387f
