I've never heard of this, one, but there's also one called tonido that was 
popular and which I plan to use for my own such server.  I don't have an apple 
tv and I don't know wheter there is a tonido app for the apple tv, but even if 
there is, you may need to update to the latest apple tv to get app support.  

Best,


Erik Burggraaf
