Hi All,
I am considering Apple TV (was looking at Mac Minis as well) to use as an extender for my DVD collection (only about 10 blu-ray).
1. Where does it pull the data for the movies that I manually ad to itunes for streaming? Is this as big of a PITA as with my music?
2. If I have 1080p content will it be unplayable or will it just downscale to 1080P? The reason I would like to rip a few select blu-rays to 1080P the first time, and not have to re-rip them once we get the ability for 1080p.
3. Anybody have any bad experiences with Apple TV? It seems so straight forward in apple fasion of "it just works". It seems with my media center (WMC) I am constantly tweaking or fixing....why wont this metadata pull....why is it sluggish all of the sudden...etc.
I am a nerd, but have limited time to jack with things. This is why Apple appeals to me.
Thanks for the help.
