Benefits of Apple TV: You can rent movies, buy music and shows from iTunes with the remote. Screensaver doesn't take paused movie out of full screen.
Better on Mini: Full codec support

Don't comment if you aren't interested.

Will this allow HD movies to be displayed on a Mac instead of an Apple TV?

I think itâ€™s a clever hack, but (not wishing to dump on your success) surely youâ€™ve just made a very/more expensive apple TV?

And if you use an Apple TV for the hack, then you must already have one and then whatâ€™s the point in the hack? Just to show it can be done?

Can you connect the macbook to a tv, and use the appletv? Or should I just use frontrow?

Will this work on a MBP? What about a PBG4? Thanks, Iâ€™m really excited to upgrade to a Core 2 Duo Mac, and this will be one of the first things I try!

Would this work on an â€œOSx86â€³ PC and not an app as OS X will run with some mods.

Does anyone ANYWHERE have a non hacked original dd image of the appletv hard drive?
My partition tables have been corrupted by macdrive and I need (I believe at least the 1st 2gigs (?) to get the unit to point where it can factory restore itself.

I've tried various torrent sites they seem to be obsessed with images running on a standard mac.
Just want the original OS so can make a hard drive upgrade.

Anyone got a link or willing to upload a dd image?

Thanks

Simon

Has anyone got this to work just by booting up using a Firewire or USB external drive... taking it to another mac and booting from it too???

THAT would be great since it would make ANY mac an apple tv mac AND you can take the drive to your friends and watch the movies there!!!

OK, I managed to get everything to work by downloading the AppleTV dmg (118Mb) onto my Mac-Mini. The dmg I used is the one that installs the necessary frameworks with a script installer and gives you an "Apple TV. app" to use as a standalone application.

Now I'm trying to use the Apple TV app to replace Front Row:
I renamed Apple TV as Front Row, dragged it to /System/Core Services, and replaced the old Front Row, and restarted the mac mini.
However, the Menu button of my Apple Remote control doesn't trigger the new Front Row.

Any suggestion?
