Airfoil 3.1 Gains Support For Apple TV, Airfoil Speakers For Windows
Boston, MA - Just over one month ago, Rogue Amoeba debuted Airfoil 3, a
major upgrade to the premier AirPort Express extender for Mac OS X. Another
big update has now arrived, in the form of Airfoil 3.1, with complete
support for sending audio to the Apple TV and Airfoil Speakers for Windows.
This update makes Airfoil the first (and only) third party application to
send audio to the Apple TV. The Take 2 update from Apple enables the Apple
TV to appear as an AirTunes device, just like an AirPort Express, meaning
iTunes can send audio to it. Now, just eight days later, Airfoil opens the
device up to receiving any audio.
From media players like QuickTime Player or Realplayer to web-based content
like Pandora, Last.fm, Sirius or XM, the Apple TV is now open for all sorts
of audio - only with Airfoil.
In addition, Airfoil Speakers is now available for Windows as well as Mac
OS X. Airfoil Speakers is a complimentary add-on for both Airfoil for Mac
and Airfoil for Windows, enabling users to turn remote computers into
virtual AirPort Express units. Once Airfoil Speakers is running, users can
now send audio to other Macs and PCs across their network. AirPort Express
units, Apple TVs, Macs, and PCs - Airfoil lets users send their audio,
everywhere!
Indeed, Airfoil is great from sending any audio across a local network, to
all sorts of devices. Whether its audio from media players like RealPlayer
and QuickTime, audio web sites like Pandora and Last.fm, or anything else,
Airfoil enables it to be sent to AirPort Express units, Apple TVs, as well
as Macs and PCs running the
free Airfoil Speakers.
