Air Video - Watch your videos anywhere!
Air Video is another great way to stream your video to your iPad. While the app only supports streaming video, you can use AirPlay, which allows you to wirelessly stream videos from your iPad to the Apple TV. Another plus over other apps is that Air Video supports video out through the dock connector. The app also lets you play back content purchased in iTunes by streaming it through Safari, which is the killer feature and makes buying content through iTunes a no-brainer. If you want off-site access, you will need to set up port forwarding on your router.

Air Video comes packed with features. It can share folders on your harddrive as well as iTunes playlists. It supports live conversion and offline conversion where the entire file is converted upfront. It lets you customize the conversion settings, zoom and crop the video.
* Air Video works over local network and over internet (including 3G). However to enjoy streaming over internet your router must support UPnP or NAT-PMP protocols so that Air Video can setup the port forwarding for you. Otherwise you will need to configure the port forwarding manually.
* Air Video will not play DRM protected videos. All video content purchased through iTunes includes DRM. Video podcast content is free and does not include DRM protection.
The free server software (available for OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and Microsoft Windows) is needed to stream and convert the videos and can be downloaded at http://airvideoapp.com .
