Connect ATv3 to Mac Mini via ethernet and still have airplay function?
I just bought a Panasonic VT50 plasma and a 3rd gen Apple TV. I live in a rural area with limited bandwidth so I'm more interested in the Airplay functionality aspect of the ATV3. I'm interested in buying a new Mac Mini to serve as a media server. If I use iTunes and connect to the ATV3 via ethernet will I still be able to use the Airplay function via wifi from our iPad/iPhones or does connecting the ethernet cable disable the internal ATV3 radio?
Alternately I could connect the Mini directly to the VT50 via HDMI and use Plex but I'd prefer to stay in the Apple environ if possible.
Thanks!
Apple TV, iOS 6.1.3
