Mac troubleshooting expert Ted Landau has spent some quality time working with the new Apple TV and gets in-depth on the issues of wireless network speed impact on video performance and the initial set-up, whether you really need a widescreen television, and the similarities to an iPod from a content organization standpoint. Ted talks about the video file formats supported by the Apple TV and their impact on picture quality, the ways that people are already hacking the Apple TV, what the USB port is good for and how the Mac mini compares to it as a home theater option. Ted also goes beyond the video, commenting on the music and photo capabilities of the device. Thinking of buying an Apple TV? This is the interview you want to hear.
