[QUOTE="Nighthawk4, post: 1293438, member: 61193"] Ideally the sound should come from the TV, but I suppose that is not essential. The iMac is about 3 metres from the TV. The MacMini is at the moment the other side of the room, but it would probably be moved adjacent to the TV, which I suppose means it would function more or less as the AppleTV would. A sort of wireless access point for the TV. Incidentally, one disadvantage of the AppleTV is that my TV has two HDMI ports, one for the Sky+ box and one for the Blu-Ray player. Not sure if splitting HDMI is a very good idea, or even if it is possible, so that would mean one device would have to connect via the SCART socket, probably the AppleTV. If it helps, I already have a SCART to red, white and yellow phono leads (can't remember what that is called). Also have SCART to SCART leads of course. Can I get an adapter to plug video and audio from the AppleTV into a single SCART plug? Maybe a lead which connects HDMI to SCART? [/QUOTE]
