Have a separate external hard drive with about 800 movies on it that stream to the TV. I'm thinking about getting another one to put on the telly in the bedroom

Quoted: Quoted: Me too, its great. Beware the dreaded HDCP error if you upgrade the firmware though  Haven't had that? What's the problem? On ATV2, if you update to the latest software version you may have issues streaming / playing content from YouTube, Vimeo maybe even purchased iTunes content. Streaming content via AirPlay or across a LAN can also be a problem. There are various fixes, but it's hit & miss and a real pain. It's pretty well documented on Apple support  If you've not seen the issue, just don't upgrade, at least for a bit, until Apple sort it.  I believe it's some kind of copy protection gone wrong, thanks to all these buggers that download 100's of movies onto a hard drive for streaming to their TV's

A good tip for music lovers... If you sign up for a Spotify account and download the App you can stream the tracks to your Apple TV using the Airplay feature on iPhone/iPad. It works well - track names & album art just like streaming from iTunes. Very handy for finding new music, great at parties and it's saving me a fortune on iTunes purchases  |
