Air Video getting an update - Canadian TV, Computing and Home Theatre Forums

The latest version of the Air Video Server (V2.4) is now available.

Should be an updated Air Video app on the iTunes store in the next day or two. According to the site, you'll need to update your server in order to take advantage of new features in the App.

One new feature is VOB support.

AirVideo is one of my favorite apps. Great to hear VOB support is coming.

Installed the server software without any apparent problems.

I'll be installing the new server as soon as I get home. Great news that it will support VOB files.

Exceptionally good app, I use it daily. Thanks for the tip

yup

easily the best 3 bucks I've ever spent

i've been fighting like crazy with tversity for a while now to get it to play nice with my archos, and my n810 (and previously the ipod touch and psp) and air video is just sweet

granted it ONLY talks to the iDevices, but it does it so well that I don't mind

I'd pay another 3 bucks for an identical android/archos transcoder

Installed the server app with no issues, and i could immediately see the VOB files in my DVD folders.
Now, how do I make use of this easily? I couldn't find a main VOB file that would run an entire movie. Maybe I'm looking at it wrong? Suggestions?

I imagine you need the new client app which hasn't been released

Ah, right, I forgot that the app was going to have an update. D'oh!
