About this product

Product Information

Watch and listen to all your shows and songs with the 1st generation Apple TV 40 GB digital media streamer. With this small white set top box, you’re able to connect your television with the iTunes account on your PC or Mac and enjoy your favorite movies and tracks through your home entertainment system. Rather than always streaming your movies, shows, and music, the Apple TV comes with a built-in 40 GB hard drive for local storage. This way, you have unfettered access to the equivalent of 9,000 songs or 50 hours of video stored right there. Control and navigation of the Apple TV is done through the standard Apple Remote. To get your Apple TV set up, it requires connections to both your television and the iTunes account on your home PC or Mac. Connecting to your iTunes account and Internet is possible either by an 802.11n wireless network or through a 10/100Base-T Ethernet cable. As for linking up the Apple TV A1218 to your television, you conveniently have several options including HDMI, optical audio, and component video cables. To enjoy movies and TV shows at high definition resolutions like 720p and 1080p, you need to ensure you’re connecting to high-definition widescreen televisions capable of supporting these higher resolutions. Apple TV is compatible with a range of TV manufacturers, including but not limited to Sharp, Toshiba, NEC, and LG. There’s also no concerns about being able to watch movies and TV shows, since the device supports videos purchased from the iTunes Store, as well as ones in H.264, up to 1280p, and MPEG-4, up to 720p, formats. Your library of music is no different and you can enjoy tracks in formats such as AAC, protected AAC, WAV, and MP3.

    jailbroken has many great positives but is not always the answer

    We love many things about the three jailbroken apple TV's we have. The biggest issue is streaming. Sometimes it is great and sometimes it stops and starts. We would love live TV and many shows don't work. Easy to use once you spend a lot of time. Overall experience is positive. It can replace Netflix and is better. Still trying to figure out how we can replace cable TV.

    Too outdated to be of much use.

    This version of Apple TV was so limited and proprietary that it is of little use with anything modern. I was hoping to be able to at least use it to view YouTube on an older television. You would have to have composite video inputs on an older TV, although the analog audio outs could be useful if connecting to an older analog stereo system. This might be the only saving grace of this device. There are hacks available for modifying the device to using XBMC, but the box has limited RAM on it so that it is smaller than a Raspberry Pi, which might be more appropriate for XBMC. YouTube does not appear to function on the device. You have to run this with a computer using iTunes to get any content to stream to it. It is nothing as functional as the more recent generations of Apple TV. Had I known ...

  • Good but far from perfect

    As all hacker software, this allows you to do just what you want but it runs with some quirks. Some links seem quick to disappear but others seem to work rock solid. Use ability is simple with this skin but there is a learning curve on adjustments. Overall an awesome item and an amazing time saver over diy.

  • Works great

    I wanted a Video hub for long trips, with 160gb I can fit a few movies, or tether it to my data plan, now we can have peace of mind while traveling with the little ones while they use the apple tv on the rear video screens

  • Device works great, but I wish there were more free apps and shows.

    Even those with a full comcast account cannot get all the channels on Apple TV Apps, only 2 out of the 4 big movie channel and very few of the sports channels.
