Apple TV Updates
No this isn’t a post about Apple releasing updates to the Apple TV. It’s me asking you guys what you’ve been doing with your ATV lately!?
A lot of you have emailed me or posted questions and comments on the site regarding ATV.
Did you get your unit patched/hacked? Did you get that application running? Can you plug in a USB hard disk, or stream content from your other machines?
Drop me a comment and let me know how your going!
I did the patchstick hack to enable SSH then added AwkwardTV + NitoTV. Now I can watch pretty much any video without re-encoding . . . SOOOO much better. What’s also cool is that mplayer retains aspect ratio which is important for me cause I don’t have a WS telly. Haven’t quite got the SMB streaming sorted yet but at least it is possible!
Very happy with the little beastie
Nice work Deeja. Did you use nitoTV to enable USB storage, etc?
I have a 500GB disk attached via USB to mine, is fantastic! network streaming is good, but attached storage is even better
