I'm curious as to how this works - did you happen to write anything up about that endeavor? There are endless applications to writing web apps for an Apple TV.

(In addition, the second generation Apple TV can be jailbroken and the relevant software reverse engineered if there is anything unclear in what you discovered thus far)

I don't know if he had written anything up, but PlexConnect (https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect) uses a similar process to serve Plex up to the AppleTV via the Trailers app.

Sweet, thanks! I used Apple Configurator to configure a proxy on my Apple TV, and am taking apart the apps that are grabbed over HTTP. Cool stuff!
