Apple TV music server question

I've never had that problem, if it's still under warranty go get another one.

i use my apple tv's (along with airport express units) as distribution points for my mac server to stream music throughout the house. there is a difference though. from my iphone, i connect to the server and then tell the server to use the apple tv (or airport express) units to send the sound to these devices. another way is to connect the apple tv to the server and use the apple remote to stream music from the server thru the apple tv. this way, volume can be adjusted by the apple remote in this case. i really don't like this method because you need a tv to navigate around for the apple tv. too bad there isn't an app for the iphone that displays the apple tv output.

how do you like your digital lens? i use other jitter devices myself before an external dac. this solution sounds every bit as good or better than my dedicated classe cd player.

"too bad there isn't an app for the iphone that displays the apple tv output"

There is, if I understand your statement, REMOTE. Find it at the iTunes Store for free.

jsmonroe - i do use the remote app. but what i would like to see is what is displayed on the tv displayed on my iphone instead. for example, i have boxee installed and i would like the app screen to show all the apps available on my iphone. same goes for other apps on the apple tv
