I was very disappointed after upgrading my iMac to Lion as i discovered my Samba shares were no longer accessible from my jailbroken Apple TV. This meant all my movies were invisible to my Apple TV and not viewable on my big screen TV.
Apple, in their wisdom, have changed the way Samba works on Lion which means many devices will not be able to connect to these shared resources now.
This morning I noticed there is a free Boxee app now available for the iPad. This is great news because you can now use Boxee Media Manager on your Mac or PC to share and stream videos without conversion to your iPad. The beauty of all this is you can then display those videos on your big screen TV through your Apple TV also.
My daughter will be very happy she can now watch Sponge Bob on the big screen or iPad instead of sitting at the iMac.
