Curious if anyone has gotten this to work. I did some searching around but i didn't seem to find anyone that had gotten any Live TV streaming with HDHomeRun or SlingBox on the Apple Tv 2.

So not H264/X264 MPEG4, but Xvid/Divx/etc MPEG4 which is handled by the software decoder, so can't do HD resolutions, the HDHomerun anyways.
But tvheadend works pretty good? Can you record shows easily?

As far as i know devices like the HDHomRun don't do any onboard transcoding.
