QUOTE(alucard89 @ Feb 4 2013, 11:16 PM) 1) Yes Thanks for the reply. I usually download 720p only cause its smaller in size.2) Depends on your connection, 1080p content might stutter on wireless(depends on movie size and bitrates)  My connection is as below, not sure the movie will be smooth. Server <-------> iPad <------------> Apple TV Technically its not the best way to play a video, since there is no JB I guess this is the only option for ATV3 right?

QUOTE(chokia @ Feb 5 2013, 10:46 AM) Server (or shall i say another windows machine) can directly play to apple tv via itune Yeah this is the ideal connection however itunes can't play MKV files. Didn't want the hassle to convert file. AirPlay PC ------------->ATV [attachmentid=3297092] It will be good if xbmc is supported in ATV3. |

QUOTE(beelze_gpwk @ Feb 5 2013, 08:12 PM) there are a few apps that is quite useful for apple tv to airplay. Beamer seems great but it does not have Windows version first is quikio, which can allow u to play & view a whole lot of movie files from your PC to your ipad, and u can airplay them to apple TV as well. next you can try Beamer. it will beam most type of movie file from your pc directly to apple TV.  Else no need to wait for jail break d |

Hi Guys,
I just bought an ATV3 and have been streaming movies from my Server using PLEX connect. Playing 720p and 1080p movies are superb. However I find some issues on the playback as compare playing these movies in my PS3 via PS3 media server: 1. The sound seems to be muffled (or not as loud) as compare when playing in PS3. 2. Watching AVI movies really horrible! Its very pixelated as compare to playing in PS3. Anyone face the same issue? Any remedy or solutions? |
