questions about apple tv..

on youtube, it let you save videos on your playlist. so when one video ends, next video starts automatically.
Do apple tv youtube feature have this?
I would like to buy apple tv if it does this, so I can have non stop music videos on my HDTV.

I have one, love it.... Can't answer your question though because I never watch YouTube on it.

You can use AirPlay to stream video off of your iPad/iPhone, so worst case you can use the playlist feature on your device in the YouTube app.





They still make music videos?

Just bought one last week and love it so far. I've dabbled with YouTube on it, but can't answer your question at the moment. I'll check it out tonight and report back if no one else chimes in.

I personally much prefer media player from WD.
It's got 1T of internal hard drive that can wirelessly download from your computer.
Also it's got all the apps to stream music to video and what not..
I've been using it for about a year now and it stores all my movie collections from 1080i to 720i along with all my musics and pictures, leaving my computer with ton of room.
You can also sync your player with any computer within network to stream as well.
It rocks. And interface is nice too.

I played my favorites on YouTube and it stopped at the end of each video without advancing to the next. Apple TV also has a playlist feature, but I haven't used that feature so I can't confirm if it operates the same way the actual website does. My assumption is that it does what you want it to.

I used my Apple TV primarily to listen to all of my music and view photos stored on my PC. Prior to buying it, I used Xbox's media server feature, which didn't always play nice with iTunes music. Plus the Xbox was just too much of a pain to fire up and get music playing, not to mention loud because of the fan. The Apple TV blows it away for what I'm using it for.

Use the remote. It works just like Xbox, etc. A real pain if you do a lot of searching, which I do not.
