AirStreamer is a better way to play non-quicktime videos on Apple TV.
There are two ways to play non-quicktime videos (MKV, AVI, WMV...) on Apple TV now: Compatibility: OS X 10.9 or later, 64-bit processor Home Page - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/airstreamer-for-apple-tv/id1180381381
• Convert them to quicktime format.
• Download an Apple TV video player.
But all of them are inconvenient:
• Video conversion takes a long time to complete.
• Apple TV video player cannot play most of videos smoothly, and it also takes a lot of time to transfer video files from Mac to Apple TV or to config file sharing on Mac.
There is a more convenient way to play MKV, AVI, WMV... on Apple TV. It's AirStreamer.
With AirStreamer, no more video conversion, no more file transferring, no more file sharing configuration. Just open your video files and the video playback will start on your Apple TV.
System requirements:
• Mac 2011 and later.
• macOS 10.9 and later.
• Apple TV gen 3 and later.
