Re: [backstage] BBC iPlayer for Apple TV
Has anyone tried this alongside aTV Flash on the Apple TV? My woeful tech skills don't extend to the command line, but I've been very happy with aTV Flash so far. The only thing missing has been iPlayer. So maybe I'll ask the aTV Flash people to bundle this together with their product, they've done this with other open source tools, and you get the option to deselect stuff you don't want. (Tried Boxee on aTV Flash, didn't like it - but that was in beta. Interested in others' views!)

I've not used aTV Flash - I patch mine with atv-usb-creator, with the only caveat that you need to track down the OS update disk image for recent versions (not tricky, mind). It pretty much does the same thing as aTV Flash, though. Well, I *did* patch mine, then I realised the only thing I ran was iStat Server and occasionally, the VNC server. (Tried Boxee on aTV Flash, didn't like it - but that was in beta. Interested in others' views!) Really really not a fan of Boxee's UI. Nor XMBC's, for that matter. Both seem pretty sluggish on the aTV, especially compared to the native UI. M. - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.

Not sure why that's not working. I've not put anything on GitHub before though, so I might have done something wrong. Anyone spot anything? I don't think it will work out of the box with FrontRow, as there are differences. There is a project called Sapphire which built a compatibility layer that could be investigated. I didn't use it though as I wanted to understand how building something with BackRow actually worked. Cheers Jonathan - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
