Apple TV + Windows Home Server

I took the plunge on an AppleTV, but I realized that iTunes support in WHS is flaky. I found a writeup on how to install iTunes on WHS but it seems a little odd having to tweak the exe and such.

But then I found a how-to on installing Firefly on WHS and I was wondering if once Firefly is on my WHS machine, would ATV see that as a shared iTunes library and be able to stream from it?

I think FireFly is audio only.
 
well that suck. guess i'll need to do the flaky iTunes install on my WHS. Probably time for a RAM upgrade.
 
I take that back, it looks like they have added *some* video support in recent releases.
(Hadden't looked at the product in a while)

I would look at hacking the AppleTV over messing with WHS.

This is a product Apple is missing out big time especially with their server in the Mac Mini. They need to produce a iTunes "server".
