We had someone coming from US. Since he was coming after many years, it was a big event. We had it all planned out, to give him a welcome and make him sing and all that. The house was filled with joy and people. We had cooked good food and had set a keyboard for the kids to play the welcome song on. We were to make all the singing talents to show off.
Being a small house to give everyone a view to what was going to be performed was not easy. The Dining room and the living room were connected by a small passage which cuts off part of the view from the living room. So if I set the stage in dining room, people in living room will have to crowd in into a small wedge of viewing area. That is when I saw the Apple TV kept near my 42" TV in Living room!
I perched my iPad in front of the performer and mirrored the camera into the Apple TV! The Video gets shown on the TV in the Living room with the audio clearly streamed in via my connected speakers!
And another day, just back from a trip, I had some photos on my iPhone and I could right away show it on the TV using Airplay. I normally have my photos in my computer which is kept upstairs connected to slightly bulky an external hard drive making it extremely difficult to move around. I can easily show them off as a slide show on my TV by streamed into the Apple TV.
Though we cannot get many of the services in India dished out in US like Netflix etc, these makes my purchase of Apple TV worth its price!
