Has anyone tried the new AirPlay commit on the nightly 8.26

I wasn't even aware that AirPlay had been implemented until just now and it works brilliantly! Just as well as natively on ATV2 from iPhone. I literally have no need for iOS on my ATV2 now.

What would be extra nice is if pinch to zoom and orientation worked, but that doesn't even work in native airplay so I might be looking too far ahead there! Wink

We can't do something which isn't working in the original. Basically we have to copy the protocol from Apple - and it doesn't have this feature ...

Yeah I was assuming this, I am sort of surprised Apple didn't do it in the first place to be honest. Great work on it though!

is there a way to change the airplay name ?

advancedsettings or something Smile

nope ... its XBMC@Hostname ... so you could change the Hostname part - outside of XBMC ...

Will this work on anything other than an iOS device? I'm running the latest (9-6-11) Nightly Build on my Revo and I'm not seeing XBMC as a target when I go to stream a video from my iPhone or iPad.

Should work on osx and linux aswell. Don't know if the linux nightlys have it activated though...

Works like a charm. tx devs!

Just did a little test from iPad. Worked great.

I did notice that it, XBMC, doesn't appear as target airplay device in "airfoil" and "airflick" for example, is this because of limitations streaming only music?

Are you supposed to turn off airplay in ATV directly and only have it enabled in XBMC - does that make a difference?

Many thanks though devs...

It doesn't make a difference - you should see both targets when you leave the native airplay enabled. Though it shows up on AirFlick for MacOSX here. Don't know what the issue is then.
