Apple TV allows users on a computer running iTunes to sync or stream photos, music and videos. [72] A user can connect a computer on a local network to maintain a central home media library of digitized CD, DVD or HD content, [73] provide direct connectivity to photo organization software such as iPhoto, [74] limit home video access to a local network only, [75] play Internet radio, [76] [77] or preload content on Apple TV to be used later as a non-networked video player. [78] For users who wish to connect the Apple TV to a computer, synchronization and streaming modes are supported. [72] Apple TV in synchronization mode works in a way similar to the iPod. It is paired with an iTunes library on a single computer and can synchronize with that library, copying all or selected content to its own storage. Apple TV need not remain connected to the network after syncing. [78] [79] Photos can be synced from iPhoto, Aperture, or from a folder on a Mac, or Adobe Photoshop Album, Adobe Photoshop, or from a hard disk folder in Windows. [80] This means there’s no fiddling around turning on the TV, then switching to the HDMI input that your Apple TV is plugged into. If your TV or receiver doesn’t support HDMI-CRC, all is not lost: you can still teach the Siri Remote to communicate via infrared. Horwitz, Jeremy (January 30, 2008).
