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.
