I've decided to get an Apple TV.

So lets say i wanna split the audio from the TV to a HIFI how do i do so ?

Thanks

Better have someone setup your TV with the HIFI first so that all the TV audio will play on the HIFI.

Then only connect your Apple TV to your TV.

Then I believe all audio will be played on your HIFI instead of your TV.

Like what sort of wiring ?

ATV3 > HDMI > LCD TV > ?? > Speakers

And lets say with apple airplay i wanna stream audio to the speakers my TV must be on ah sleep.gif

Yes your TV must be on in order to be able to hear audio from speakers because the Audio comes from APPLE TV to Your TV and then to your Speakers whistling.gif

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.

In term of blockbuster movies maybe not much, but enjoy the contents which is quite a number of drama series and the cartoon episode.

For example, even Superman cartoon have quite a number of version I haven't watch.

And I have no idea there is free US DNS and also free Netflix account. doh.gif

Hello Everyone. This tread have >60 pgs. Can anyone kind enough to explain actually how the apple tv works? Some said jb it will work. Some said getting vpn and netflix? How does it works generally?? I am lost.

You have to go through all the pages.

1 think you need to know, Apple TV does not have a Hard Disk that you can use to store movies in it.

Apple TV mostly stream movies from different sources.

Example, you have a computer and have iTunes in it. The iTunes library have some movies in it.

You can use your Apple TV to stream the library content and view it on your TV.

Above, is one of the example.

As for me, I use the Apple TV to Airplay my iPad screen to play games or maybe airplay movies that I have on iPad to Apple TV.

At the same time, I also have Netflix Account. So I can browse Netflix contents from Apple TV.

Quite a number of thing you can do with your Apple TV depending on your preferences. thumbup.gif

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)

Unfortunately I have done nothing to my Apple TV.

My brother even watch Youtube on his Laptop I still get Super HD on Apple TV.

I even use the standard Unifi Router provided by TM.

Yes you can get SuperHD but is the video quality 1080p? or just 480p?

I believe it's 1080p because on my 46 inch TV, a resolution less than that will look very ugly notworthy.gif
