Hi all,

Tempted with apple tv for ease of use and airplay streaming, as it will be mainly for the kids films is it possible with either stock or jailbroken os to remove itunes recomendations etc and only show movies in your own itunes library?

Thanks

If using Homesharing from iTunes then it only shows whats in your iTunes library. I've never used the parental controls in iTunes but they do allow you to limit movies to certain age groups and completely ban explicit content.

You would probably have to tag the movies with the metadata for that, on OSX it's best to use IVI, on Windows you can use metadatabatcher or MetaX.

You can also enable parental controls on the AppleTV itself to cover it's access to iTunes.
