Now that I got XBMC nicely running on my ATV, I am considering the next step also integrating itunes and iphoto (leaving me with XBMC as the ultimative media machine).
Anyone has managed to get itunes- and iphotos-integration on ATV. If yes, how?
Many thanks!!!

These are really phantastic plugins. Really nice!!!
Two quick question/request:
(i) Would it be possible in the artist view not to show artists from compilations, but only show "compilations" as one field in the same way how this can be configured within itunes?
(ii) Any chance to get coverart support?
Many thanks!!!

I just installed and am running XBMC for the first time from my macbook pro (leopard) to a PS3. Both devices are running the latest updates on everything. This is my first time dealing with media servers (the search for media servers on the PS3 sparked my interest and here I am). Anyhow, it's installed and running and the PS3 sees XBMC. I used the itunes library plugin and pointed the server to the itunes library XML file (i hope thats right). However when viewing the server on the PS3 I have two options for music—'music files' and 'music library'. When I go to music library it says there are no tracks. When I browse the music files it shows my itunes folder which has the music albums folders as sub items. When I click an album I get an error: "Media Server Error A DLNA error protocol error (-1) has occured."
I searched the internet for this error code to no avail. Any suggestions? I just want to share my itunes library and iphotos. Maybe the problem is on my end...I am a media server noobie.
Thanks.

besides using the plugins which doesn't seem to work for me. Can I add source and locate my iTunes library on my MAC? I have my MAC set to Samba Share. Can I point it to the location of my iTunes music folder instead?

Will this plugin also work on an Apple TV running Beta1?

I ran the plugin, but altough there where +- 15.000 files in the I tunes library on the ATV, none seems to be imported. When I click on artist for example, i just got ".."
The second time I tried to run the import, i even got an exit out of XBMC with status "4"
Is there no way to add the Itunes library as a location?
Also: How do I remove a music location, as I did something wrong and added a location with nothing in it
