You don't need to jailbreak to watch Netflix on Apple TV. You just need a Netflix subscription, at least 5MB broadband connection and a VPN. and yes, I'm using a Malaysian American Express card for Netflix subscription. To enable Netflix, you need to set iTunes Store to United States on Apple TV. Works on ATV2 and 3.

Yeah if i had vpn i can watch netflix from my ps3, no need to buy ATV

Buy AT3 now la, later when JB available price will increase. rclxms.gif

ATV2 JB is very difficult to find, even in ebay the price is so ridiculously high.

ATV2 on ebay is selling sky high which is not worth at all for a used product that doesnt even do full HD.

i would definitely have a nervous breakdown if after i won the bid paying a lump sum of money from my paypal account only to find out that ATV3 JB is available the next day.

Reporting in :

Using Apple Tv 3 with Unifi Vip 5.

No problems streaming Super HD.

Hehehe... Subscribed to Netflix for 1 year and unblock-us service.

So far so good.

Netflix have quite a big movies library.

Dunno when can finish watch all. Hahahaa..

But netflix doesnt seem to have many blockbuster movies included. Most of them looks like movies listed in Asiabox which are free. So far I watch Transformer : Dark Side of the moon but that was 2011 movie and it is not even in HD.

Lucky i dont have to subscribe to paid VPN service like unblockUS etc. There are free US DNS around the net you can use and free netflix accounts too.

Can you share how to enable SuperHD coz according to Netflix, you only need 5Mbps internet and Apple TV with 1080p so definitely for ATV3 and not ATV2 coz ATV2 only do 720p. (Read: http://support.netflix.com/en/node/8731)

Mine is ATV3 and unifi VIP5, but when i watch SuperHD movies they look like SD only. Yesterday i was bored and watched Charlize Theron in Aeon Flux but quality like old Astro HBO (not HBO-HD)

thx Underground,

But are you serious? go through all 60 pages?? Does anyone have a guide or something? just need someone tell me where to start looking at. information overloaded here...lolx.

AppleTV is a streaming media player like asiabox or ps3. It streams media from internet and also from your devices. AppleTV in particular has AirPlay that can stream media from Itunes, be it Mac or PC and all iDevices (Ipod, Iphone, IpaD)

The newest AppleTV is AppleTV3 it stream media in full HD (1080p) and it cant be jailbroken yet.

The old Apple TV1 and ATV2 can be jailbroken but they dont support fullHD.


The reason why we need it to be jailbroken becoz the default internet streaming services in ATV are only few and most are not free. So they want to install other services like XMBC

But you can also install XMBC or all internet streaming services offered by AppleTV in your PC/MAc or or devices too. So no big deal.

So why still want to buy AppleTV?

1. becoz it's so cute
2. becoz we buy all things apple.
3. becoz we are isheeps
4. becoz we are mactards
5. becoz of airplay

My personal reason is no 5. Air play is the whole new level of wireless style in media playing and mirroring display.

How to enable netflix? Have to pay subscription?

U change your country in address in Itune to USA, then login with the same id in AppleTV. You can atleast enjoy netflix for a month or so.

Oh u also need to change the DNS too.
