I was wondering if Apple Tv would ever consider on being able to watch movies in different languages ,like Spanich,French, ect.? Please send me an e- mail to my question , Thank you.
Though the new 1080p Apple TV 3 and the iTunes 10.6 enables to play 1080p video, it
only support 1080p in h.264 format.
Apple TV still cannot import, stream and play 1080p HD video which is in MKV,
AVI, WTV, WMV, FLV, WebM, AVCHD, MPG, DivX, MXF, and VOB etc format.
Just google search Step by Step Guide on How to Convert 1080p MKV, AVI, Xvid, Divx, MP4, FLV, WMV, and MPEG to Apple TV/Apple TV 2/Apple TV 3
you will find a step by step guide on how to convert 1080p video in MKV, AVI, Xvid, Divx, MP4,
FLV, WMV, WTV, WebM, AVCHD, MXF, MVI, VOB, F4V, BIK, RMVB and MPEG to Apple TV 3/Apple TV 2/Apple TV supported format
Yes. The new ATV 3’s supported format is still limited. I have to use the app brorsoft video converter i have to convert kinds of video files to it.
More importantly, can I install plex or xbmc on the new apple TV? It would be sweet if I could.
Great question, but it will need to be jailbroken first. We’ll post a jailbreak for ATV3 when it becomes available.
I was going to ask the same question!!
Still no USB. C’mon!
Glad I waited for this one, I already have a Boxee Box which I use a lot but I want thise one besides it just for my iPad.
[…] available for order today is the new Apple TV 3 with 1080p, that device will also ship next week and has the same release […]
I think you mean ordering starts today!
I had to restore because, for some reason, I had lost netflix after a successful jailbreak. Apple just released the latest build 5.0 today. My bad luck. Anyone know if the 4.4.4 jailbreak would work on a 5.0 build? If not, when can we expect a 5.0 untethered jailbreak?
