Connecting Apple TV with Time Capsule

Hello,

I have a Time Capsule and i can access its contents (videos, photos, docs) perfectly from The iPad/iPhone with the "Filebrowser" app.


However, i don't know how i could access from Apple TV to Time Capsule in orden to open the files remotely.


Is there any app specially designed for Apple TV to do that?

The Apple TV is 64Gb last generation.


Thank you very much

  • Install VLC in AppleTV
    • Make sure Airport is on same WiFi network as AppleTV
    • Any shared drives will appear on Local Network tab, select your airport
    • User will be :: admin
    • Password will be the disk password you setup on your time capsule
    • Click Save
  • Open AirPort Utility on Mac > Click on Time Capsule > Edit

    Here are my settings:
