Hi
I just got an apple tv to replace my wdtv player. I know the atv only plays 720p which is fine for me as my tv is only 37" so 720p looks fine. I have a few questions that i have tried to get to the bottom of but so far no joy:
1. My ipad2 is jailbroken on 4.3. Do i have to update it to ios5 to get the
mirroring to work? And is it worth upadating and losing the jailbreak.
2. Most of my films on the wdtv are mkv 720p AC3. What is the best way to
get these into itunes? Do i need to convert them to what format to retain
the best quality?
3. I read i just need to remux them (whatever that is?) and/or put them in a
different container (whatever that is?)
4. If i install xmbc will i lose the ability to stream from itunes?
5. Does xmbc override the atv gui which i kind of like.
Please can anyone help as very confused at the moment
Many thanks
Baz
