Play iTunes Media from Time Capsule?

Legacy 2nd gen Apple TV

Hi,

my iTunes Media is stored on my time capsule.

Is it possible to stream movies without running the mac and iTunes?

Install XBMC from MAINTENANCE and add a SMB share:

 

example

-----------

time capsule: annihilatrix

disk: killface

file sharing: on (use time capsule password)

airport guest access: read only

workgroup: friskydingo

wins server: <leave blank>

 

file paths: 

music: annihilatrix/killface/audio/library

 

xbmc:

music share: smb://friskydingo:password@10.0.1.1/killface/music/library

 

I copied this info from the XBMC forum

<quote> For those on Airport Exreme or TimeCapsule I tried to create a PDF of what I did to get things working. If I missed a step just let me know and I can add it. I think should be a start for some...
