Can I use XBMC which is installed on Apple TV 2, to stream from TVersity?

Thanks

Yes you can. I was able to set it up yesterday. I still get a lot of buffering - may be because I said "do not transcode" while adding the folders I was sharing over UPnP.

I already have tversity working perfectly, and xbmc installed on apple tv 2. How did you configure xbmc to work with tversity though?

I have tried it by adding a source to the video of xbmc. My tversity server is no local though. I am trying to stream through the internet, and xbmc cannot connect. I don't know if it's the 41952 port that it's causing the problem, or that tversity requires authentication, but xbmc cannot connect.

I thought uPNP was a non routable protocol by default. Therefore, not certain if you're gonna get it to route across the internet as you intend to do.

Something to look up and confirm before continuing with your attempts.

Just have to answer on this. Am testing this out now with no success. Tversity can stream local via UPNP. You can just browse to the local server. (wish there was a way to create a VPN setup but nothing for ATV2 yet under XBMC).

Tversity can also transcode and stream remote (over the internet) via a standard browser.

1) Via flash and the line http://localhost:41952/flashlib plays flash transcoded movies fine

2) Via ftp built into http://localhost:41952/medialib/browse where it tries to download the whole file. Checking on this more later

but no luck yet on apple tv with xbmc. trying more tests soon over internet

UPNP:// command does not seem to work with internet streams from Tversity.
