Honey player .. small cost.  I have tried twonky mobile and PlayTo lite 
whilst both play to xbmc (airplay), either app can't see the 
mythtvfrontend device.  Audio streaming from itunes verifies 
mythfrontend is operational and it is very very good.  I have to say 
xbmc's AirPlay is impressive it just works and works for audio/video.

I was interested to see if I could stream images/video to a mythfrontend 
- though I don't have any apple devices.  I've read images are not 
supported, but was interested in what would work.

With twonky you can stream over AirPlay, but whilst the XBMC appears as 
both a upnp and airplay sink (device) there's nothing for Myth.

I wish mythfrontend had the rendering capabilities of xbmc's unpnp.   
All interesting ... anyone else know of any client's worth trying?
