Hi,

Does anyone have a clue if it is possible to monitor the streaming activity between Apple TV 2 and my iTunes library ?

Regards.

There’s a command line utility called tcpflow that can monitor any traffic that enters or leaves your computer. Of course that’s a rough way to monitor stuff but if you really really want to do it then that’s a possible solution.

Testing it proved me that when streaming is pushed from my iMac, iTunes is the server and I am able to monitior it’s activity. I am know looking for a way to monitor my computer’s activity when streaming is pulled by the Apple TV.

How could I do that ?
