I just got one a recently. We have all of our music and some videos in iTunes, so I just wanted to be able to stream it to another part of the house. Seems to work fine. I have had a hickup or two where I had to reset "Home Sharing", but otherwise its worked fine. Haven't tried mirroring our iPad with it yet, as the wife took it out of town on business!

Do you have a specific question?

Once you put you movies on it do you need internet connection to watch? I ask because I was wondering if it would work in a fish house. I now use my iPad with 3G and watch movies from netflix with my connection from my iPad to the tv.

If you are using Netflix, then yes you will have to have an internet connection, since the movies are "streamed". IE: it downloads while you are watching it from the Netflix server vs when you buy one off of iTunes its actually downloaded and stored on your device. If its stored on your device, then you can "mirror" the device using the Apple TV and show it on your TV screen. (mirror = displaying what you see on your device on your TV) Does that all make sense?

If you don't have access to internet and/or don't store movies on your device, might be better just to get the DVD from Netflix and play it through a cheap DVD player.

We have a Netflix account and use that for our movies, while we buy our music from iTunes, for now anyways.

I'm sorry, what I mean is can I put movies on the apple tv box from my itunes account and watch them with out Internet like I can with my iPad. I ask because my iPad doesn't have a lot of memory since I only got the I pad with 16gb and I have about 30 movied in my iTunes account.

No you can't. It doesn't have a hard drive/memory, its strictly a streaming device. I'd maybe just sync a few of the movies vs the entire collection.

There is no "good" standardized way of increasing memory on an iPad, that I am aware of. Its one of the reasons for iCloud, but if you don't have internet access, that doesn't help you. If I hear of anything I will post it.

Anybody else have any ideas?

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
