Hi,

Just got my apple tv yesterday.wanna ask a couple of questions.

1)How can i watch netflix? I cant even register because it says my payment option is not valid.
2) manage to browse through hulu plus but i cant stream the video because it says it can only be play within US region. I'd already setup my apple tv using tunlr DNS though.

What should i do?

Alright bro, my netflix is up and running great now..found out that maybank cc is good to use already.
Thought we need to use US cc or something.

Thanks for all forumers for helping..u guys rocks!!


Added on August 4, 2012, 6:11 pmGot 1 more question here..how will netflix charge me? Is it through my maybank CC or my US itunes account?
So confused ..i got email from apple saying they im subscribed through itunes but when i checked at netflix website it just stated my CC as payment option..no itunes there..

Did you subscribe directly from netflix website or through itunes? If you subscribe directly from netflix website, you'll get a recurring charge from netflix but if you go through itunes, you'll get billed by itunes.

Thats why i confused right now..cos i got netflix subscription in my itunes (got auto renewal somemore) but when i checked at netflix website the payment option got only my CC..i suppose it should stated subsribe through itunes there.

Btw i register my netflix through apple tv..but it said something about my payment option is not valid. Thats why i register my Maybank CC in netflix website. After that only i can login into netflix.

Well, all fellow ATV 3 user..i think we can give up our hope for the jailbreak already. After all we are the minority group of apple user. No one will care for us. cry.gif

Its the news from pod2g himself : http://www.idownloadblog.com/2012/08/09/no...tv-3-jailbreak/


Netflix + Airplay + Plex media server is already enough for me.

Hi, just bought myself ATV3, now am using unblock-us for my VPN and is trying to figure out which streaming service between Netflix and Hulu Plus should i subscribe to. Tried both but still can't decide as both has its own strength and weakness. Please help.

1 week trial should be enough for you to decide..for me i go with netflix.hulu seems too boring for me..cheers!

looking at bolehvpn price I think its not worth it.
Will stick to the one am using as it always works and cheap

Yup.. RM30/month definitely not worth it.. So got anymore cheaper VPN other than this?
Maybe cheaper than unblock us..please share ur knowledge. smile.gif

Great...it's my second month on netflix now. Netflix charged my Maybank CC instead of my itunes credit. Charged me $8.55 including tax somemore.
I also got email from Apple to renew my netflix subscription. I dunno why..it's like my apple id did not tally with netflix account eventhough the ID I used is the same. rclxub.gif
BTW i cannot login to netflix if i used my apple id password.

guys im planing to get a Apple TV, my question is since 3rd gen havent JB yet, so no chance to install XBMC. so is there any possible way to watch MKV file? i have alot of MKV (DTS) file stored in my HTPC. can i able to watch all those in ATV3?
how about the network speed for this ATV3 does streaming HD bluray movies smooth? 

Ps: anyone wanted to sell their atv 2nd gen. please PM me.
*
U can view mkv file on apple tv using media server app..for now i use plex app (can be downloaded from the appstore) to stream mkv movies to my ipad then airplay it to apple tv.
Maybe other forumer got simpler solution can share with us..? cheers smile.gif
