Still No Apple TV Audio or Video Streaming Options?
Last I checked there weren't any options to let an Apple TV play content from a ReadyNAS (any variation). Last thread I found on this was last year. Is this condition still the case? Thanks!
You are right for wifi but having the 3 problems (signal congestion, multiple electric installation on the same house, non drillable walls) at the same time is also pretty rare IMO but not impossible I grant you that.
For Microsoft, if they are not moving fast they won't be able to recover, I trust their ability to do so with their new CEO but that's merely a bet. They can mathematically recover, but still that means taking risks and that means doing it now. If they need 3 to 5 years to do something they are over until either Samsung and/or Apple make a stupid move, if they can pull something big out for next year, maybe... I think they plan it since they bought out part of Nokia.
I guess everyone is different, I just said what I've seen. I would be very presumptuous to say I've seen everything ;) I think Androids don't have flash anymore either (I think it was removed in 4.1 and is now impossible to install under 4.4, needs checking) and you have an "unread" mails category on iphone/ipad. But that doesn't really change the debate anyway and remarks for SD and player that need third party app or adapter are still valid.
You are right we are way off topic ;) I guess I (and my friends) had too much problems with android devices. We can continue by MP if you wish to, but although I am pretty flexible before making my mind and easily listen to people (hoping to learn something), although once it's made I'm quite stubborn and I'm afraid I'll need at least an outstanding Android device to change it. So I suggest to end it here. I hope we'll have the opportunity to speak constructively about another subject but I feel this is not a good one.
So, back to the topic. To my knowing : Airplay is a solution, apparently plex is also. You could also bypass the aTV completely and use DLNA on your TV if compatible. I can't see any other solution right now.
Maybe we could advise on a better setup to help you stream your films depending on your budget, available hardware/software and needs.
