Re: control an apple tv with the remote app
Maybe it is possible to use iPhone as the screen via aieplay? And the music direct to the stereo set. Maybe someone can confyrm this?

RE: control an apple tv with the remote app
Hi Kawal, If you like the features of the Apple TV and have a receiver with HDMI or even just an optical input you wouldn't even need a TV. You could still use it as an Airplay device or to listen to YouTube, Netflix, Internet Radio or to stream content from your computer. Of course a TV nowadays takes up a lot less space than it used to since you can get TV's that are so flat that you could simply hang them on a wall. My Sony LCD TV is one of the older generation and compared to the new ones it is relatively thick, but even if Apple made a complete TV it would take up just as much space as any other TV and the current Apple TV is such a tiny box that it doesn't really take up any room, I have it sitting just under my TV where it's hardly noticeable.

Re: control an apple tv with the remote app
Hello Sieghard. I don't understand what you mean by 'and have a receiver with HDMI or even just an optical input' Please explain. I'm getting an I Mac. Will the Apple TV work with that? and if so how? What can I do with an Apple TV using a Mac? Kawal.

RE: control an apple tv with the remote app
Hi Kawal, I meant a stereo or home theatre surround sound receiver. I am not sure if you have a stereo system and if so if it is a portable system or if you have a system with components such as an amplifier/receiver, a CD player, speakers etc. Most newer amplifyers or receivers have a number of input connectors which allow you to hook up things like CD Players, DVD Players and so on. Anything that has video as well as audio like a DVD player, satellite or cable box typically use the so-called HDMI connectors which stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. Both sound and video are transmitted in one cable. A optical digital connection transmits audio only and it is also a common input on most newer amplifyers or receivers and by newer I mean anything that is not much older than 10 years. I don't think you can connect an Apple TV to an iMac and I don't see much reason why you would, but that would be a question for somebody at the Apple store where you are buying your iMac. The Apple TV is a consumption device, it is basically a simple interface which gives you access to various sources of media including iTunes, third-party subscription services such as Netflix, publically available stuff like Internet Radio and YouTube and media in your own iTunes library on your computer. It is designed strictly to stream this content on a TV either by connecting it directly to a TV with an HDMI cable or to a receiver with either an HDMI cable or optical cable.

RE: control an apple tv with the remote app
I don't see why you should need an Apple TV if your new speakers support AirPlay. When you connect up the new speakers to your wifi network you'll be able to stream audio from your Mac and/or iDevices like the iPhone etc to your AirPlay speakers. I'm a happy owner of an Apple TV myself but I bought it to get AirPlay on my hifi-system. I only use it for audio. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Kawal Gucukoglu Sent: 26. desember 2012 17:01 To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: control an apple tv with the remote app I have no home system but am getting some airplay lang sing speakers.

Re: control an apple tv with the remote app
Double tap on the area that says gestures then you can flick up, down, left and right but you have to stay in that one small area for your flicks to register. These gestures will move your Apple TV focus around, like using the Apple remote.
