So close yet so far away! For now, AirFlick does the job, and uses VLC internally, so that's what I recommend to people, but it is much slower than what VLC would be able to do internally and is very, very unpolished (a more polished program is Beamer but it's a joke at $15 for a simple wrapper that uses ffmpeg internally). m3u8 playlist (leveraging the built-in HTTP server and transcoding support) and listen for the appropriate "get duration", "seek to 1:03:20", "go to next video in library" etc commands and act on them.
AIRFLICK APPLE TV 3 DOWNLOAD
What im wondering is if there is any way to do the same with the temp files that download from icefilms. So between beamer and airflick you can send most video file types to be played on the tv. It'd JUST need a tiny server inside VLC which can expose a. Hey guys, wondering if you could answer a question I had about using the apple tv 3. (the interesting protocol is regular video/audio transmission, not the mirroring stuff, which is more complex) I really wish I knew enough about VLC to program a patch, because I estimate the work to be at most 1-2 days of light tinkering, considering that complete dissections of the AirPlay protocol are out there and most of it is already built into VLC:

If VLC had just a tiny bit of extra support built-in (the seeking/metadata protocol), it would be possible to insantly share videos over the network and play them back on XBMC or another AirPlay receiver. XBMC has a built-in receiver and there are dozens of receivers for every computer platform out there. VLC is very close to supporting AirPlay mirroring out of the box.Ĭonsider now that AirPlay is by no means Mac-specific. So only point #4 would require any real work.

Publish the stream over HTTP (easy, this transport layer is already built into VLC) Has anyone tried using AirFlick to stream non-iTunes content I cant get it to work.Transcode the playing media to h.264 + AAC (easy, transcoding is already built into VLC).

Funnily, the free AirFlick ( ) uses VLC internally for the transcoding.
