martijnp Posted September 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 Yep its coming soon but only for jailbroken ipads sadly I was reading they are working on the iOS application and it's pending for a certificate for the Apple App Store. So this might be good news! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I download Popcorn time on my laptop (not apple), then can I connect the laptop through my DVD via USB and stream the movies directly onto my TV? Thanks Ken That's what I did last night. I used the service for the first time. I hooked up my laptop via hdmi to my tv and watched the movie. No issues at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasebah Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 But not via USB KB! You will need an HDMI cable to connect your laptop to one of your TV's HDMI inputs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coffindodger Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 movies won't start on my macbook any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martijnp Posted October 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Just got the latest version of AppleTV and I can't find the AppleTV when I choose where to stream from. But I can duplicate my Mac through AppleTV (wireless) so this is working for me. No cables needed but would be nice to stream directly to AppleTV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martijnp Posted October 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 movies won't start on my macbook any ideas? That's strange mate.. Still have this problem or is it already solved? I must say that I didn't have any problems so far and works like a champ (knocking on wood) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobandshawn Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 FYI guys, I've been using this for a while. It's great but, it does use torrents as the backbone. Supposedly they run them through their own VPN but I have heard reports of people still getting flagged by their ISPs for torrent downloading. Other then that it works like a charm. ^^+1000. VPN is NOT relaible. My ISP received a cease and desist letter from the MPAA that sounded pretty ominous. They had the name of the movie/the time/who was logged in/ and the complete routing IP addresses. I may still be in trouble. Use with CAUTION.

martijnp Posted October 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 There is now an IOS version of Popcorn time but unfortunately only for jailbreaked devices. You can download the app via Cydia.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasebah Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 Marti, there are two modes for air play. Normal mode and mirror mode. Mirror mode is what you are using now, and it works fine but sometimes lags at least in my network when watching 1080p. Normal mode is somewhat different as in normal mode apple tv will stream and cache the content directly form the internet without using the PC as a proxy. Normal mode was initially supported by t4p but is broken since the last Apple TV software update I am sure they will fix it soon. -Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using the mirror mode at this moment when I stream via my macbook air or imac. My macbook pro is from 2010 and didn't have the airplay mode so I installed Air Parrot which works great on the Pro aswell! The mirrormode is doing the job at this moment but a complete stream would be better. Like you see in this picture, you can choose to stream through/Play on Chromecast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnipz Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 From what I've read this version (time4popcorn) is a ripoff that has hidden code in it. I believe this is the open source version: http://popcorn-time-free.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martijnp Posted December 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 I didn't post it here but it is running again! If it doesn't work, install an older version (for mac users PM me, I can send you a download link ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
