hi all,
I'm considering a jailbroken Apple TV 2 running XBMC as a network streaming device for my mainly HD content.
My HD content is stored on a USB 2 drive which is connected to my Acer Revo nettop (which runs XBMC Live 24/7) and they're connected via a router and a powerline connection. The HD media is shared out from the Revo.
Do you think the Apple TV 2 would work well for this setup? Only reason I doubt it is that i've seen people complain about SMB, but I'm thinking it sounds ideal because my wife would like to use it for this Apple integration with her phone also.
thanks in advance
