Thanks for the responses.

So Razlaw, would you do something like, LINK + V.AUX, then use the itouch?

So would you connect the apple tv solely using the HDMI cable, or both the HDMI cable to the tv and then the Analogue RCA stereo audio cable to the ouverture a.aux?

Thanks

I have our connected with both. HDMI for picture and surround sound in main room. Analog for the link room.

Great! It should be a nice addition for Christmas :)

have you looked at using ATV Flash?

I don't have an Apple TV yet, but I had a look at this and it might make it a good option for me.

In addition to allowing you to attach an external drive for extra storage it also has 2 other enhancements that I would find useful :

* the ability to store DVDs in their entirety (with menus etc.) without converting them

* the ability to connect to an older TV (like my Avant) without any extra convertors etc.

As I said, I haven't actually done this yet - has anyone else taken this approach?

Hi DW2008,

Looks good but I'm a bit skeptical of modding a new product... and if it's going to turn into a pc, i might as well get a mac mini .S

I don't think one has to get ATV flash. There is enough free stuff out there ..... I actually never really used my ATV until I started modding it.

If you are concerned about capacity, you can get them from third parties with bigger HDDs, at least here in the US. You can even do it yourself I guess ...

Cheers
