Hi Diego, OK basically what I am trying to do is stream the audio for a
variety of programs on my PC (and maybe my Mac as well) to my AppleTV over
wy-fy. I don't need to do this when using iTunes because Airplay is built in
but I use a variety of other applications that don't natively support
Airplay.
I would appreciate any suggestions other than Airfoil which is user
unfriendly and occasionally crashes.
thanks
Frank

Hello guys,
Why would you want to pay $40 or any amount of money for something you can
get for free?
You can download several applications from the app store and implement what
you want at no cost
I am assuming that you mean to stream music or video via the Internet to
your personal device from your computer base at home.
I have done this quite easily several times.
If anyone is interested, let me know on this board and I will bring you the
name of the applications.
Since I have not used this feature for a long time now, I do not remember
the names.
Cheers,
Diego
