What do you mean by "successful"? I've got no problem connecting to netflix via VPN using unifi. Or do you mean streaming TM's hypo tv channels through ATV?

Depending on what you want to do with it .. you can stream movies from your Mac through itunes to the AppleTV. If you want to subscribe to online streaming services in the US, yes, you need either VPN or a mechanism such as unblock-us.com ..

Sad to say, no you can't use appletv to watch those channels streamed by Unifi's IPTV. Read more about it here:

Yup, it works just like those media players sold here:

http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...62384&hl=player

Just that, without jailbreaking it, you can only stream movies through itunes. There are few other services offered which are free like youtube etc. which I've never try them.

Apple TV is not your average mediaplayer. I'be been using it for about 2 months now and have stopped buying DVDs or Blurays. Jailbreaking is the way to go to fully utilize this magical little black box. Also AirPlay mirroring will blow you away. Everything on your iPhone 4S or iPad 2 will appear on your LCD TV. I can jailbreak the apple TV in less than 40 minutes. I hardly watch astro or iptv nowadays. All latest and old movies, tv shows, music concerts, comedies etc at your fingertips 24 hours a day, for FREE!

how about without jailbreak it, can i use whatever app in my iphone/ipad to do the AirPlay mirroring or only those app with tv out support?

Yes, literally everything on your iPhone 4s and iPad 2 will be on your screen. There will be black bars at the sides but it will appear full screen for movies, photos and certain games. AirPlay mirroring works without jailbreak as well. U have to update to the latest 5.0.1 software.

if you're a football fan, sad to say the best and most reliable method would still be subscribing to astro >.>

anyone who have tried streaming any match or heck even searching for em while streaming would agree ._.

I guess you've the Apple TV 1st generation instead of the new black box. The black box is not as powerful as the old AppleTV and I couldn't find those media streaming service from my XBMC list.

No mate, I'm using Apple TV2, just got it about 3 months ago. Icefilms and navi-x are very easy to install and streams beautifully. U have to install the repository and addons manually. It's not built in to xbmc. I cannot explain how to do it here as the mods might remove the thread. U can actually do it in less than 5 mins.

It's better if u re-jailbreak with season pass for 4.4.4. More stable and much mor bug fixes and features, like AirPlay mirroring.
To load icefilms and navi-x, you need to download a program for windows called winscp, google it. And then transfer the zip files for icefilms and navi-x, which you can find very easily via google into the media folder of your apple tv. There are lots guides to do this. Lemme know if u need any help. Good luck!

Astro won't sue Apple since Apple only allows few streaming services, mostly US based one. If Apple decided to go local, they probably will ask Astro to develop an app, just like those Netflix, Hulu etc. that run on the AppleTV.

Apple tv can play.mkv and h.264 format up to 720p, .avi 720p file will result in stuttering as the A4 chip in the apple tv can't handle it.

I got my apple tv from the west 54th st. apple store in new York. After conversion it's about RM340 or so. Anyone needs help jail breaking and installing all the addons, give me a holler if ur in the klang valley. I'll do it for you for the cost of a Teh Tarik! It's just my passion to help people enjoy good entertainment. Or we could organize an apple tv TT or something.

There are quite a number of guides out there, search for 'firecore seas0npass' on google and you'll get what you wanted smile.gif

To JB, make sure you've the AppleTV connected via micro-USB and it shouldn't be connected to A/C power. The rest of the guide can be found in firecore's website.

There is easier method to install XBMC but you need to pay for it.. to install XBMC through ssh, here is the guide:

So (as with free method) I nee to:
1. Jailbreak it with 'firecore seas0npass'
2. Install XBMC (media center) via http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-T...C_on_Apple_TV_2

No idea what smarttv is, but with appletv, you can install xbmc .. and as aceedburn, you can do a lot of thing with it smile.gif .. I couldn't play much with mine since my son's have the sole ownership of the appletv + tv .. can't watch astro too .. need to get another tv smile.gif

Just wondering if the topic starter is still active, probably we could do a first page FAQ and guides on how to install xbmc, navi-x, or on how to subscribe to the streaming services.


Added on January 31, 2012, 8:33 amor probably acidburn can do at his thread instead?

don't think so bro, as jailbreaking is considered "piracy" and the thread will get deleted by the admins. Unless there'sa private forum, we can probably only discuss these things via pm.

Jailbreaking is no longer considered as piracy, there are one thread each in iphone, ipad and ipod sub-forums. I believe admins are okay with this. There is no piracy discussion anyway on AppleTV since no commercial applications are allowed on it.

Two ways:

1) I believe XBMC can play avi and mkv (haven't test this), if yes, you can mount your iMac filesystem from xbmc. Activate file sharing and use the guide here to get afp running on apple tv2:

http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?t=109723

2) Stream it, use Plex or vlc, guide to install plex media server can be found here:

Ok, now, go to XBMC, videos, files. Add videos, select Browse, scroll down for ZeroConfig browser, add your ip address using:

afp://youripaddress .. it should let you add the path.

On mine, my shared Mac machine is listed without me specifying the afp://ipaddress manually..

Nope, my server has a fixed ip. I'm no longer using my tm provided router. Do you have access to the router? If yes, check under network and see if you can have a static ip address there. Otherwise, just change your imac ip from dhcp to static (on your imac setting that it)..

Yes for sure, just remember to use the same subnet ip address. Best is to have an ip address not in the range that set in dhcp.

Nope, my server has a fixed ip. I'm no longer using my tm provided router. Do you have access to the router? If yes, check under network and see if you can have a static ip address there. Otherwise, just change your imac ip from dhcp to static (on your imac setting that it)..

I change at my imac la. More easier laugh.gif hahahahaha. Any drawback?

One more thing, now my xbmc is not nice anymore as got dead file in there. I can seem to delete the whole folder in there. Maybe uninstall xbmc and install it again with nitotv

Unifi Router scare me la. I noob in networking. ptuiii la me as engineer and programmer. Router only, so scare. ahahhaha



Anyway, I set with my imac.
Two option:
1. Using DHCP with manual address
2. Manually.


Right now I choose Using DHCP with manual address

Apa punye field engineer daa, unifi router setting is nothing lah, buat malu engineer je .. haha.. (btw, am engineer by qualification but stuck in software development maintaining an ERP system).

For the static IP, better to assign it to lower IP address .. have no idea how that DHCP with manual address work, I believe it will update router's database so the next machine connecting won't get the same IP address as your iMac .. probably .. no idea .. smile.gif

XBMC setting? No idea bro, is there anything within XBMC that will reset it? Resetting the apple tv won't help since XBMC is the one that created the playlist. Probably ssh into your appletv and find the playlist file .. should've within the XBMC directory.


Added on February 3, 2012, 10:14 amFound here in xbmc wiki:

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Userdata_folder

Probably clearing up the folder will do .. but you need to put in all the settings..

Semalam, dah jumpa nak delete "File Source". For example, gi kat Video > File > Highlight Source Which We add before & to be deleted > Press Menu (2 seconds) > Remove Source.


Lps Library dah kosong, start add source balik ngan static ID.

Unfortunately not mate, unless you had saved your ssh blobs prior. And if your unit is the new apple tv 3, you may need to wait longer for the jailbreak to be available.

apple tv comes only with HDMI output. If there is hdmi-to-vga converter, you might be able to.. but haven't tested this myself, so, no idea really.

The new AT2 has never been jailbroken before and I do understand that Tinyumbrella can save the blobs but not sure it can save the blobs on a non jailbroken ATV2 or can it?
Furthermore can I use redsnow to build the patched blobs instead of ifaith to create custom ipsw?
And I guess an edit to the hosts file would be required.

Q: How do I jailbreak an older version?
A: This process will let you install/jailbreak any version of the ATV2 software that's either a) still being signed by Apple or b) that you have SHSH blobs for.
update iTunes to the latest version
save your SHSH blobs if you haven't yet
download the iOS firmware file
if the version you want to install isn't being signed by Apple (they typically only sign the latest version and sometimes one previous version), open Tiny Umbrella and start the TSS server (assumes you have SHSH blobs for the version you're installing)
get Seas0npass and follow the guide EXCEPT Option-click (Right-click in Windows) the "Create IPSW" button to select an older iOS firmware file or you'll be upgraded to the most recent iOS version, also remember to only plugin the microUSB cable (not the power cable)
prevent updates from crashing XBMC
if you run into problems, review the troubleshooting tips and try to jailbreak again
Seas0npass may not change the ATV menu. You'll need to ssh to your ATV2 (using Putty under Windows, or Terminal on the Mac, see below) to verify it's been jailbroken and to load additional software, e.g. wget, XBMC, nitoTV (install info below), etc. Alternatively, you can use Greenpois0n (video tutorial) or Pwnagetool.


As long as it is Apple TV 2nd Gen and the OS is 4.4.4, I believe you can fire up TinyUmbrella, save the SHSH blobs, and then just follow the instruction above. So .. do not upgrade to later version first before saving the SHSH bloobs.

Planning to get an Apple TV 3rd Gen.
wondering what are the main reasons you guys are using it for?

it used to be my primary means of streaming from Netflix since I don't really like turning my ps3 on simply for Netflix (random game invites)

but since prime is available on the ps3 now my apple tv is used primarily to keep the balance of qi stable in its current place of storage - somewhere under my bed

It's still affordable.
If u compare iPhone to this, the price is a huge difference.
What apple tv does is amazing, looking at how small the product is

this sums things up pretty well -


QUOTE
Wow, not sure what to make of all this rationalization of illegal behavior here. Does it matter if the price seems too high? No. Are the businesses trying to make money? Yes. Are the businesses doing anything illegal? No. Is it illegal to steal? Yes.

I think a lot of people think it's OK to steal movies and music because of some contrived rationalization. But I wonder what those same people would think or feel if their work or money was stolen from them using the same rationalization. And teaching children that stealing is OK so long as it's a large faceless corporation seems downright chilling to me.

No matter what post-modern feel-good bull-crap teachings say, right is right and wrong is wrong.



but on that note, netflix used to be a great source for copyrighted contents but they've been lacking lately and the price hike did it for me.

prime > netflix.

Amazon Prime that it .. Been using Netflix for more than half a year now and I would say that it is amazing .. at least it keeps my son busy with all the Barneys, Thomas, Power Ranges, and the likes .. and I can still watch the old TopGear releases .. if you're subscribing Netflix for up-to-date TV shows or movies, than you've chosen the wrong content provider.

Yup. Correct. I normally catch up old series once a while.
Also Netflix on itunes can pay using Itunes gift card. Now the rate is very cheap. (around 1USD = RM2.8 or lower).
I terminated by usual Netflix account and use New netflix account on AppleTV.

But 1 thing I found out is that the Netflix video quality on AppleTV is slightly worse than Netflix on Roku2 XS. Somehow it is hard for AppleTV Netflix to stream at HD reso.
Hopefully either Apple or Netflix can fix it.

i did originally mention how netflix is good for older content but somehow edited it because it sounded overly cynical :x

to those with atv3, are you guys having any issues with streaming content on it? specifically with the service mentioned above :P

in order to use non-jb apple TV, must have at least fast connection and unlimited bandwidth,
Bcoz there is no place for u to choose 480, 720 or 1080HD, it will automatic choose the highest 1080p quality. and it suck up my 20G umobile bandwith easily.

Hulu plus? U can practically forget about it if you dont have a US credit/debit card. Those virtual US debit card like Entropy all not accept by hulu strict payment system.

Nope. I use my Malaysia CC to pay Netflix for almost 1 year.
U can also use your US Itunes Account to pay (Subscribe on Itunes). I found it to be cheaper this way because I can buy Itunes gift card at 2.5-2.8 rate or even lower from seller here.

Some banks do offer such service. e.g. Citibank. Another one you can try is vshub. Never tried before since I find the charges are quite high. What you wanna buy? ATV?

Apple TV is not your average mediaplayer. I'be been using it for about 2 months now and have stopped buying DVDs or Blurays. Jailbreaking is the way to go to fully utilize this magical little black box. Also AirPlay mirroring will blow you away. Everything on your iPhone 4S or iPad 2 will appear on your LCD TV. I can jailbreak the apple TV in less than 40 minutes. I hardly watch astro or iptv nowadays. All latest and old movies, tv shows, music concerts, comedies etc at your fingertips 24 hours a day, for FREE!

TV3 is around RM400 and RM500++ is for extreamer. I'm comparing both which is better. I still dont get it how the XBMC addon worked. Is it we are streaming the video from filehosting without a premium account ? wont get limit download or lowest speed buffering as free account on filehosting ?

yeaaa right, sorry im confused, we do need to JB it to install in Malaysia, PS3 is the one that can install netflix directly not Apple TV, I mistook these two.

netflix comes together with the apple tv.
but to subscribe to it, you need US IP Address.
example of ways to get this IP Address is unblock-us.com

TV3 is around RM400 and RM500++ is for extreamer. I'm comparing both which is better. I still dont get it how the XBMC addon worked. Is it we are streaming the video from filehosting without a premium account ? wont get limit download or lowest speed buffering as free account on filehosting ?

just google xbmchub and you will able to get alot of info on xbmc. as for the speed, as long as your internet is fast, no issues on it.

How you define the internet speed fast? Just want to ask if my internet speed is 1MB only is it able to stream movie without lagging?

No, the free wifi haven't cover my area as I'm not living in town. Even got I also won't use it because I think if free thing sure many people to use, I use before when I'm in the coverage the speed is quite normal but if use it to stream movie I don't think it would work since many people use = speed slow maybe some user also using it for downloading biggrin.gif

hi guys,

I've been happily using my PS3 as a media player all this while. Although it plays all my non HD AVIs very well and very sharp (due to the upscaling), I find the whole process of transferring files to and fro my macbook and the PS3's external HDD a pain in the ass.

I've tried streaming with Plex but the movies I stream (non HD mind you) always chokes and stutters. I'm not sure if that's because of my stupid Unifi router or is it due to my PS3's Wireless G speed.

Will the Apple TV solve my streaming problems? if I can easily stream from my Macbook Pro (connected to my 2TB external HDD where I keep my files), then it would be a great tool to have! otherwise I might look into getting a QNAP or Synology to stream my files BUT I'm still worried about stuttering and choking...

so many things to worry about, limited budget, and don't wanna risk buying those stuffs and end up can't work well sad.gif

Thanks so much for reading and I hope someone can provide me with some answers!

Thanks again!

hi guys, now I'm on unblock-us and netflix trial. But I always need to reactivate the changed ip address on unblock-us once I restart my modem. If I subscribe it, do I need to do that everytime?

btw, apple tv really great esp the airplay. Now watching euro everynite through my ipad.

yup, everytime you reset your modem, you'll get a new IP address. This IP address need to be updated in unblock-us database. Wonder why you need to restart your modem? My router + modem have been up for many months without a need to restart.

I'm on unifi, it doesn't change the IP address unless I rebooted my modem. Eventhen, it seems unblock-us works just fine .. check on how to use dyndns to trigger IP change, it is available in unblock-us FAQ.

AppleTv is awesome.. Oce jail broken, being the caveat of course.

Xmbc - wow...
Navi-X - cartoons and more!
Ice films - does not work for me for x reasons, the links don't show up
Pogo plug - once jail broken of course,

Pogo plug - in case people does not know, it is a little arm based box that I got from USA for usd99. Once jailbroken, (even without, it's also quite usable), installed Samba as well as some other stuffs, then if becomes a low power (very important to me) streaming, downloading box and 24/7...

but keep in mind the new atv3 cant be jb now.. so even if u get it now, u can only

1. air play (air mirroring from ur idevices with at least ios 4.3 and above)
2. itunes store movies
3. no netflix as malaysia no netflix. if u using US acc, then probably can use VPN.

n to make sure u got a fast internet connection to avoid long buffering.... n get a hdmi cable to avoid having to go back to buy... i bought one from apple authorised store at RM59...

the hdmi cable from apple store have same quality u bought from outside >rm100
but apple have advantage as the cable connector head is very small and easy to bend compare to heavy duty monster head which could damage ur tv/apple tv hdmi port if bend

Hi buddy. The previous KVPUG forum was so darn addictive in those days, huh? Have we met at any of our meets previously?

Anyway, I use tunlr VPN. It's free and Netflix works beautifully. Netflix gives you a 1 month free trial and after that it's only usd7.99 per month which is very affordable IMO.

yes, provided that you subscribe to a US based vpn (or unblock-us etc).

No external drive is supported, the only way to play movies is via streaming from itunes from your pc/Mac. No idea if itunes supports mkv, probably you need a plugin..

i would keep the wdtv and proceed with the atv. since both are for different functions. i've an atv / ps3 for netflix / prime & tvix for downloaded media.

if you're an osx user mountain lion might negate the need for a media player, though. (depending how well air play works)

No need apple id, I subscribed directly on netlix website using MBB cc. Paypal wont work.
But of course you need unblock-us to excess to it. You may try the free trial before register to it, unbockus 1 week... Netflix 1 month.

You mean to say you just subscribed to Netflix with your Maybank card?

Will Netflix be blocked/feature hidden (?) on my apple tv if I used a Malaysian ID even with unblock us ?

Hi buddy. The previous KVPUG forum was so darn addictive in those days, huh? Have we met at any of our meets previously?

Anyway, I use tunlr VPN. It's free and Netflix works beautifully. Netflix gives you a 1 month free trial and after that it's only usd7.99 per month which is very affordable IMO.

It was very addictive & we did meet at one of the events at Mont Kiara where i bought one of your instrumental CDs. Thanks for the VPN info. I'll drop by machines when they stock it and get the apple tv. In the mean time i'll look into the vpn service first

yes for ATV2 coz can JB and you can get ATVFlash which has a media player or my personal favorite Plex (probably the best media organizer today). If ATV3 only can use home sharing on your iTunes.

Airplay if im not mistaken not JB stuffs le

Its where u mirror ur iOS device on TV wirelessly using internet instead of VGA adapter.. Something like doing presentation using TV through the iOS device

As for games that support airplay, u need check with the devs themselves.. I know MC3 can airplay smile.gif

Ah ha....sorry, i havent bought the aptv. Still looking for gen 2...hehe. i just wondering how does it work...so once aptv switched on...and my ipad is connected to wifi, the mirror function at the dock will appear, right? Tq very much.

BTW, may i know must i jailbreak the aptv in order to mirror my ipad content on my lcd tv? Or aptv3 already can support that?

you don't have to jailbreak to airplay.
airplay is basically mirroring

You can only mirror using iPhone 4S, iPad 2 and iPad 3.
Other device, you can only stream photo, video, youtube. ah as well playing games. your iPhone, iPad can be the controller.

yeah. used to use crt too. this year decided to bought a new plasma... searched a lot and finally decided on panasonic.. try going thru the home audio section and search for comparison on the tvs..

currenty to maximise the atv3 is just on netflix, movie renting, purchase and AIRPLAY... thats all.. until they have jb, u will have to stay content with the current features.. and netflix u will need to use vpn.
