I have an aging Core Duo iMac FE in my kitchen. I've
been planning to replace it with an HDMI monitor and
some extenders back to my main FE in the basement,
however after using Airplay mirroring today in our
boardroom with my Macbook, I may have other ideas.<br>
<br>
My Macbook has an 0.26 FE on it that I rarely use. I
was thinking about purchasing an AppleTV, running Myth
on it, and using Display Mirroring to send the video
to the kitchen monitor. I'd expect some sort of loss
of picture and / or audio quality but since it's a
kitchen tv, I'm fine with a little fuzziness.<br>

MythTV does not run on the AppleTV, nor does the AppleTV
run OSX.<br>

<div>Right. But MythTV runs on my MacBook, and I can use
Airplay Mirroring to send my display to an AppleTV device.
So I was wondering if I could send my MythTV session to
the AppleTV. <br>

Ah, I misunderstood. I thought you were trying to use your existing
iMac (and screen) as the output device, and run MythTV on an AppleTV
to stream a screen to it.<br>

I went back and re-read what I typed and really should have proof-read before submitting.<br><br></div><div>As for the control question - I was planning on having the laptop in the kitchen at the same time, so I would just use the keyboard to control Myth. In an ideal situation I would make the AppleTV a second screen and run Myth fullscreen on that, freeing up the laptop for laptop-esque duties. <br>
<br></div><div>I may end up going the HDMI route for now since it's cheaper... Plus I hate to spend money on an AppleTV device since I already have a Boxee Box and a plethora of XBMC devices. Unfortunately I don't think that anything else supports the functionality I need besides the Apples to Apples (I'm funny) scenario.<br>
