I would like to see camera capabilties for a program like Skyle or iChat.
It would be like Star Trek talking to the tv. Teleconfrencing would be pretty slick…

Make Apple TV work as a streaming extender for Vista MCE.

A lot of MCE users out there, and not a single good extender (XBOX is too noisy, big and ugly.)

So seriously… what is the workaround for the movies playlist??? does this allow continuous play of music video’s? That is my number 1 gripe of the AppleTV. I hate having to change songs after every single music video.

Skype on AppleTV – I have to move the laptop into the lounge and attach it to the TV for family calls to relations. If we had Skype on AppleTV (in the same way that Equinux’s MediaCentral delivers it) the laptop would not be needed anymore.

Utilize the AppleTV as a 802.11n to Ethernet bridge.

REAL USB-STORAGE: Stil there is no easy way to extend the internal with an external disk without booting from it and very complicated hacks. Something like an automount would be perfect.

DVD: It would also be great to enhance the Playback of VIDEO_TS folders with the option to change languages by using the DVD menu or better by just clicking on the remote. The NitoTV plugin is a great start but only a start.

CHANGE AUDIO TRACK: Last but very interesting would be the possibility to change the language of a videofile witt more tham one audiotrack (e.g. English and Spanish) like it is possible wiht the VLC player. U only have to click “L” and the language changes. But in iTunes or Quicktime u always hear both tracks at the same time. that is annoying. U can only change the language by selecting the language by the menu and by using the mouse (what’s not possible or wanted on the ATV )

Boinc (boinc.berkeley.edu) would be great too.
