Might want to check that. The video on the web feed is Silverlight ( a Microsoft program). I was going to run it on our TV through Google TV, which is android. Silverlight doesn't work on an Android device (and the workarouund app isn't available on Google TV)

I wonder whether Apple TV supports silverlight. You might want to check that.


So I paid for the package and have yet to use it.
