I have a puny NAS and never have to wonder if the media will need transcoding or what container or codec it uses, it just works using direct play.

I don’t understand why people like AppleTV so much, we have one too.
It had the worst interface by far of any streaming or video player we use. Its like Apple went out of their way to make it unintuitive.

I feel you… AppleTV is probably the worst Apple product and OS ever made… Don’t even try to tinker arround with that stuff.
Apple products in general are horse shit… Probably even worst than Windaube ! I’m always pulling my hair out when going near that stuff and help my parents out.

The interface is just apps, no ads. That’s the appeal.
You can’t install apps without the store and that really blows though.
The best combination is probably an Apple TV AND a Google Streamer or NVIDIA Shield. Im interested if a SteamOS box like the Steam Machine or a self built one can take over as the all in one though.
