haha sorry didnt know Myth could do Airplay.
For i-player, I sent it straight out over airplay to the ATV
.. which is why Ive never tried mirroring with i-player & wasnt sure if that would work that way. Ive successfully used mirroring for other things.
With my 3 to 3.5 IP profile, even watching directly on the PC (or the Mac), iPlayer is a pretty unpleasant ordeal, blurry pictures that keep freezing
Thats a shame
I did some testing a while ago to see how much bandwidth is use whilst streaming various quality streams via i-player.
Stream to the ipad was about 1500 kbps
SDTV over airplay to the ATV was average 2000kbps
HDTV was 3.5 Mbps.
You can see the results
here. Obviously they arent conclusive... because theres no exact way of measuring to the APTV & ipad.. so I turned it on its head, let the stream have what it needed and then let the PC soak up the rest of my bandwidth.
[The idea behind the following tests are to stream content to various devices whilst simultaneously downloading the 1GB file. If we subtract the average download speed during the tests from the available bandwidth then we should have a rough idea of how much bandwidth is being used by the streaming media content.
