Apple TV connecting to PC |
|
| | Apple
TV can connect to desktop or laptop through Ethernet cable? Or it can connect
to PC using Wireless LAN(2.4 GHz or 5.8 GHz 802.11a/b/g, draft 802.11n (with
the issue of interoperability) through Access Point (AP). |
|
| | |
| 1.12.2
Sync from one |
|
| | Open
iTunes and Apple TV appears in your devices list, ready to sync. Set iTunes to
sync unwatched video. Sync new purchases. Or manually select what to sync. Set
your preferences once and Apple TV automatically updates as your iTunes library
changes. Everything travels over your network to Apple TV's built-in hard drive.
So once you sync, even if you turn off your computer or disconnect it from the
network, you can still enjoy stored video - up to 50 hours of it - from Apple
TV. | |
| | |
| 1.12.3
Stream from many |
|
| | If
you want to watch video from another computer, you can stream it live to your
TV via Apple TV. Streamed media travels over your network to your TV - without
taking up space on Apple TV's hard drive. That's perfect for multicomputer households
or when the computer you sync with has more in its iTunes library than will fit
on Apple TV. Just choose up to five additional computers from the Sources menu.
As long as a computer's on your network, it can stream to your TV.
