Have you been able to get an osx 10.9 to see the apple tv via Bluetooth? -----Original Message----- From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU] On Behalf Of Jason Heffner Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2014 8:48 AM To: WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Apple TV display mirroring spectrum use in HD wifi
Apple just released discovery over bluetooth in iOS 6.1. This is a major hurdle for most institutions as it no longer requires bonjour for discovery but instead relies on bluetooth. I've tested it and it works well. I wonder if they will add this support into OSX soon. http://gadgets.ndtv.com/tv/news/apple-tv-61-update-brings-airplay-security-option-discovery-over-bluetooth-and-more-494249 This certainly doesn't invalidate our work on our Mirror App, but for some it may be the missing piece which we were also providing. Mirror will also allow you to use AirServer and provides a way to connect to AppleTVs from remote locations. Either way, it's about time Apple!
