A question for those of you using ATV Flash: I am considering getting an Apple TV, and using ATV Flash to put all of my music and movies on an external drive. I have about 40,000 songs and a handful of movies. My question is this: When I add new songs or movies to iTunes, how long will it take to re-sync the Apple TV considering the size of my library? Thanks.

I am using a hack similar to atvflash. When i sync new content, the ATV only has to sync the new content. It does not have to re-sync my entire library.

I have been very disappointed with ATV flash. They're customer support is the worst. The new version has been out for 2 weeks and they still havent been able to update my account. They don't answer or return phone calls. And the one email they answered, they didnt actually answer what I asked.

If I could get a refund, I would.
