    Airplayer (Airplay server for enigma2)

    I saw this video on you tube. showing the ability to stream content from iOS to the Dreambox / VU etc..
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ra7KeZWJlk

    That is exactly what I'm after. as it eliminates the issue of having to lean forward to pick up the tv remote to switch inputs to apple TV if i suddenly feel the urge to show my wife a silly video of a pig falling off a ladder (or whatever the latest meme is).... sorry im going off track.

    The code/plugin for airplayer is here:
    http://code.google.com/p/airplayer/

    support is in german ?maybe? and I have not had any luck in getting it to work.
    ive only tried installing it the normal way. (ftp to volatile\tmp folder and then install from the gui)

    Just thought I'd post it here as it may be of interest to others, and maybe someone out there has been successful.

    This definately looks interesting, i could potentially replace my apple tv or at least have an alternative for certain things.

    I will need to look into this to get this setup. Thanks, also let us know if you make any progress.

    I tried installing the .mipsel ipk, restarted the gui but then got an error about plistlib or something and the airplay extension is not available.

    Hum that looks good. That's one that would be nice if it was encoded into the vix package on the network menu, once it's working.

    Its not bad...plays video and audio quite well! Still a few quirks with video streaming but I'd say this will develop into a pretty decent plug-in!

    Did you manage to install it on a vix image? I tried on vix 2.2 but got a plistlib error on gui restart.

    Hi there ...

    perhaps there are missings some files ? I read in another Forum this:

    Ich habe die notwendigen Module wie folgt installiert:

    -opkg install python-misc
    -opkg install python-shell

    Erst danach das Plugin installieren.
    Is it this plugin from the IHAD-Forum?
    http://www.i-have-a-dreambox.com/wbb...hreadid=166124

    I want to try it later this day ... CU No.Trace !!!
    - Vu+ Solo2 - Vu+ Solo SE V2 - Xtrend ET4000@750MHz - all with OpenVIX -

    DCC is a ftp program that you install on your pc. you can then access you Vu+. it has its own ipkg installer. This is where you will find the two missing files.

    I installed the 2 files via dcc and the plugin is running, it works fine with photos but not video from the camera roll or you tube etc the vuduo just flashes between pause and play.The airplay icon doesn't show on iPod
    But this will be a cool plugin once finished!
