Air Video App Gains Nice Update
June 22, 2011
Three months after its last update, the universal Air Video app has been improved upon again. Version 2.4.9 includes zoom, improved TV Out Support, among other goodies.
Created by InMethod, Air Video uses AirPlay to convert your iDevice into a wireless streaming video relay and remote control. This allows you to access video stored on your PC or Mac on your iDevice, which can then be streamed to Apple TV. Best of all, the app does all of this without having to convert and import your files from iTunes.
The latest update adds zoom during video playback and added support for the Dock remote. In addition, Playback over AirPlay is done in the background. The update also includes bug fixes.
Note: AirPlay requires iOS 4.3 update and the latest Air Video Server BETA version, which is not yet pushed through automatic updates. For more information on the BETA, please visit the InMethod website.
Air Video is a universal app compatible with the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad and available in the App Store for $2.99. The Air Video Server software is a free download for Windows and Mac OS X.
