Hi,
I am a new switcher to Apple, and would like to have the following function at my house:
Have my films that I downloaded/purchased sitting on my Samba (Linux) server, and watch it through my TV. Can Apple-tv just pull the file(s) from a networked drive and play it through my TV? If not, I guess I can just upload the films to the Apple TV's HDD and play it back from there? I would rather have the streaming though..
I have a semi-old TV, and will upgrade only next year. Semi old = SCART and RCA inputs only. Can Apple TV hook to my TV via SCART or a simple Stereo audio cable and a single (not component) RCA (yellow one) cable?
Thanks for all answers,
Ben
