I think people should use alternative method instead of Jailbreaking or unblocking their Apple TV and it is also discouraged by Apple too. I use PlayerXtreme for casting my screens to watch movies and video on the big screen through its chrome cast and Airplay features. It also provides 1080p backup along with Dolby Digital and True HD support.

The Raspberry Pi only needs a usb cable+adapter to function. You also need a hdmi cable and of course SD card. That’s it. Installing raspxbmc is very easy. You download an installer which will put an image on your SD card. You then boot it and it will install the rest automatically (https://www.raspbmc.com)
After that you boot into XBMC and you can start configuring it. Works like a charm. I use my iPhone as a remote for it (free app “the official xbmc remote” in the appstore)

In reply to René de Groot. did a little researching about the raspberry pi really interested me a bit. Does it work right out the box? And how hard was it to install xbmc?

In reply to Randell Alderson. No, but it is rediculous that you cannot even connect to a share to play media. In order to use your AppleTV, you NEED a computer that runs iTunes. In order to use iTunes you NEED to convert your videos. I'm known for being an Apple fanboy at work, but things like this make me move to Android someday. My AppleTV3 is disconnected atm collecting dust. I use a Raspberry Pi with XBMC to play media atm. until something better comes along :)
