Possible to make good use of ATV3 until Jailbreak is available?
Been using XBMC for a while and trying it on many different machines and bought my first ATV a week ago. To my dissapointment i realize there isn't any JB available yet
Would it be possible to do something like this:
1. Set up XBMC to use VLC as the default player
2. And have the output stream to <any> port
3. Using the VLC iOS App (nice it's back on App Store!) to pick up the stream
4. Use AirPlay mirroring to display the stream on my ATV3
I've already tried re-streaming for instance Sopcast -> VLC on iPhone -> AirPlay Mirroring on ATV3 outside of XBMC which worked OK.
Any thoughts on the above? Better ways to do it perhaps?
But main question is, how to set it up using XBMC (Running on Lubuntu 12.04 and 12.2 Frodo)?
