Less every day. Many streaming services have ended support and the menu system is archaic. The ATV2 resolution is capped at 720p and ATV3 at 1080p. AirPlay, I guess. Put it this way: I’m struggling to think of anything you can do with those ATV’s that you can’t do better with an entry level Roku or Amazon Fire.

Good enough for me

I wrote an iptv player app for apple tv3 devices (may work for 2 cant test). If you have an always on server or a rapsberry pi laying around you can try it. No need to jail break your device, installation is similar to plex connect. https://github.com/ghokun/appletv3-iptv

I have a three in the mail currently and yeah I also have a raspberry pi just laying around so I may try it if I get bored


meanordljato

hmm ok seems quite smart, so i can download a movie, serve it on my iptv server and access it via this app? sounds like worth trying out


Ghokun

u/meanordljato Yes.

Waoo that is pretty nice. Don't event need to share from my iPad. Looking forward to try that. Let me know if you have a donate option for the project. Btw. u/Ghokun do you have a guide for the windows setup and does it work on windows 10 32 bit? When i try to execute the downloaded file it says i should find a version working for my windows. Also the github guide is for linux. I guess I will try to set it up via Linux at some point.


meanordljato

u/Ghokun i got it working with Linux now. Now I'll just have to set up a http server and maybe find an auto m3u generator for my downloaded files. Also I'll check the apple computer share and see if that works

This is incredible! Apple TV 3 is more of a brick than ATV2. Many thanks for this work. I like the DNS trick. Many of the functioning ATV3 apps are useless to me anyway with Red Bull perhaps the very bottom.


Ghokun

Thanks. Let me know if you have trouble setting up, or countered a bug.

I am sure HD and 4K will be more brick too in the future. :(

I really wished someone would jailbreak these old ATVs' (new/lat)est firmwares so they can be usable more than AirPlay.
