I have an iPad 2 so I've been really interested in the AirPlay feature of XBMC.
Back when I started using Eden Beta 1 it worked great for me.
However, Eden Beta 2 broke Video AirPlay for me when using the Air Video app which is the only app I am interested in using AirPlay from. Since then its has still been broken in Beta 3 and is still broken in RC1.
I can post a log tonight I suppose as I am not at home right now.
My iPad 2 has been running 5.0.1 since the start of the Eden Beta.

Ahh you are playing with live conversion. AirVideo problem is reproducable then. Next time please be a bit more specific ... this could have been fixed already in b3 ... but now i really have problems to get this fix ready for eden ...

I'm so sorry I wasn't more specific. Yes I am using Live Conversion.
I know this AirPlay implementation is very complicated and that you are basically reverse engineering Apple's implementations because it's not a published standard or anything.
You ARE doing an amazing job so far and I'm sure everyone really appreciates the iOS work you have put into XBMC. IMO it really makes XBMC stand out above the rest of the media centers that don't have these kind of features.
I know you will work on it when you can and that the Eden "RTM/Gold" is coming very quickly.
I have faith that you will eventually iron out the last bugs. Even it it takes until 11.1 or something.
Again, you have done awesome job so far as RC1 does work with everything else I've tested including Youtube, Apple trailers, Music, streaming Pandora, etc.
Just I use AirVideo to stream movies in 720p at quite high quality when selecting the 2560kbit option in AirVieo when I am at someone else's home (like my parents) and so far NO AirPlay application that runs on Windows has been able to successfully AirPlay Live conversion from AirVideo.
Except of course Eden Beta 1 which does work.
Thank you again Memphiz for all your hard and diligent work. None of this iOS and AirPlay stuff would probably be possible without you!

I'm sorry to hear about your issues playing HD via AirVideo over AirPlay to XBMC.
Without wanting to hijack your thread, I am very pleased to hear you are able to stream music no problem. As the last thing I heard was that sharing music to XBMC using AirPlay was not possible at all. (something to do with the API not being available or something?)

My YouTube AirPlay works fine, but itunes music from iPad 2 and iPhone still doesn't work in rc1...
Basically it's the same as beta3 was, with regards to AirPlay for me.

Guys stop mixing up things here.
Music AirPlay is not possible when using Windows on XBMC (but it works on all other plattforms). This won't change for Eden.

Somebody == me. I fixed Apple Trailers App playback - this broke AirVideo Playback when using live conversion.
I've committed a fix for that regression in mainline and its most likly that it will hit eden (maybe even next RC).
For that audio stuff. No we don't want to learn anything from shairport4w. We already have an airplay audio solution for all other plattforms. We are relying on that one and "just" need to port it over to Windows which is a mighty task to do for our windows devs. Putting 2 solutions in there (one for windows and one for all others) would give a heavy support mess - its hard enough in the way like its now (where most features share the same code on all plattforms already).
