Anyone have an original Apple TV to test PlexConnect with?

I am really curious as to whether this works on the ATV1 (i.e. does it have the same XML schema and does it have a standalone trailers app).

Does anyone have access to one that they could test with?

Please bear in mind that it would still not be supported but it would be interesting to know if it worked across the whole range.

Color me curious as well :)

Didn't work.  On the Apple TV1, the option under Movies is called simply Trailers.  The log in Terminal is below (I clicked it a couple times).  I noticed the URL iphonesubmissions.apple.com.  I'm surprised because the other Movies and TV options work on the ATV1 (mine is jailbroken) but I didn't see a call to apple trailers, but somehow I believe Plexconnect is intercepting just this trailers call.

I can post a full log if you guys think it would help.

Thanks for trying it out :slight_smile:

No the trailers on ATV1 work differently than they do on ATV2 and 3. On ATV1 the trailer app is hard coded to be just a single grid view which is then popluated by a simple list of trailers from a single xml file.
