Full screen ATV3???
#1
IPad Air on IOS8.0.2 Gotham runs great so decided to purchase an ATV3. However I'm sure you are all aware of the mirroring issue whereby the screen size is limited when running xbmc. So I looked into it but turns out the addon I was planning on using (display out) isn't yet configured to iOS 8

Does anyone have any bright ideas on how I can get full screen xbmcHuh??

How Apple havnt caught on to the issue of full screen mirroring is beyond me!? Surely this is standard stuff?

That only mentions iOS 6 & 7. I've tried what it suggests yes, as it happened I'm unable to change settings in this menu and the big black lines remain and I'm reduced to half the size of my 50" display.

Thanks for the reply though. Something I hadn't tried previously

Its the same for ios8 like ios7 - you need to ensure that mirroring is activated prior starting. I am not 100% sure that gotham 13.2 works for ios8 (it should be 13.2-3 !). Once you have it mirrored - start Gotham and you can definitly select fullscreen #2 in XBMCs video settings. I tried this alot with my ipad mini retina - but the target was an atv2 tbh (atv3 should work the same imo).

The iPad turns into a controller, which literally written on the screen with instructions.

I get that ned, it's just not entirely user friendly.

You can also use a bluetooth remote with iPads, USB keyboard with the USB camera connect dongle, or another smartphone/tablet with the remote app.
