install xbmc in your iphone/ipad/mac and airplay to atv3

have to JB iphone to install xbmc? then can play free movies?

yes, if not then use your mac.

Is there a way to airplay youtube with subtitles? I have tried on iphone & android, both can't show subtitles on the appletv. on my iphone4, it shows the subtitles on the phone!

i thought airplay will mirror everything on the idevice's screen

I thought so too. Unfortunately, with the latest Youtube, it only shows the pix, but not the subtitles, very weird.

i don't like the new youtube interface on ios D: stupid stem cell looking share button

Sorry but I hardly use apple tv now.

I found out that the best streaming movie to apple Tv via airplay is using itunes. even via windows desktop.

Since i kesian to leave my macbook on 24hours to torrent and salvaging its storage space for movies, i use my old window desktop to do all these dirty job since it has few old hard disks fitted. (but running out of space now)

And to my surprise this old low specs (dualcore 2GB Ram) windows desktop can stream 1080p movies in mp4 to my HDTV without stutter, no cinavia disturbance. (my old desktop connected via wifi dongle btw)

Only thing the movies must be itune friendly format like mp4, but we are lucky many 1080p movies at our "favorite bay area" are in mp4 as many as mkvs.


That said XBMC is the least application that i care to open these days.
