Airfoil 3.0.1 Fixes Several Minor Bugs

Mon, 14 Jan 2008

Airfoil 3 came out Thursday, and it's been incredibly well-received. We've fixed a few minor bugs, and we've now got Airfoil 3.0.1 ready to go. This update improves compatibility with firewalls and has better error handling for many small issues.

Just head over to the Airfoil for Mac page and see what the buzz is about, then download Airfoil 3. New users can purchase for the low price of $25, while Airfoil 2 users can upgrade for just $10. Users who've purchased since July 16th, 2007, automatically receive this upgrade free of charge.

Of course, Airfoil 3.0.1 is a free update for all owners of Airfoil 3.

We'll be at Macworld all week, so if you're here be sure to stop by our booth, #2738 in the South Hall.

Will Airfoil work with Apple TV?

Not currently, no. The AppleTV isn't open to third party developers in any way. We'd like to support it, we tried to, but there was just no way.

(That said, hacked AppleTVs are a different and more complex story.)

Will it work with a hacked Apple TV?

If you ran Airfoil Speakers on a hacked AppleTV, I believe it would work fine. We've heard from one user that he's doing that, but it's not really something we can support.

Of course, with the new AppleTV update, all of this is likely to be moot. From what we know, AppleTV Take 2 will be an AirTunes device, and we should be able to send to it (though it may require an update to Airfoil to add support).

Really? The info I've seen shows the ability to stream from the Apple TV to an Airport Express, not stream from iTunes to the Apple TV. Do you have different info?

Henry - AppleInsider's screenshot would seem to indicate that you'll be able to send from the ATV, yes. However, we've also heard that it will work as a dumb receiver. We'll see what happens in a couple weeks.
