How many ATV2's can I use with home sharing at once?

I am installing a fairly large home network. I have 10 ATV2's I would like to use on 1 network using home share, all will be connected via ethernet. Is there a limit to how many atv2's I can have connection one itunes account with home share or a limit using the remote app?

It used to be a limit of about 5 AppleTVs per iTunes library with AppleTV 1 but that registered them as devices rather than using Home Sharing.
I suspect but don't know for sure that Home Sharing has to be more liberal as Home Sharing now works to portable devices like iPads too, and if the household had a couple of AppleTV2's, iPhoness and iPads they could reach 5 very quickly.
Having said that we just don't know.  There is a limit of sharing to 5 computers with Home Sharing, so it's possible the same applies to individual device types, we just don't seem to know from the support docs posted.
Personally I'd be surprised if 5 was the limit as under the old system if you ran out of 'Devices' in itunes you could set up another computer for the next 5 and so forth.  Home Sharing on the other hand just shares to a particular account so you'd see all libraries shared from a particular account on all AppleTVs.

  • How many video chats can you use with this server?

    I am looking to develop a multi-video chat app that's easy to
    build. Can I use Stratus with this? Or do I need to use FMS.

    none of the video streams will pass through Stratus. Stratus
    only enables end-to-end streams. You are limited only by the amount
    of bandwidth the client ends have as far as how many different
    streams can be flowing.
    if you need to relay streams through a server (the to-many
    case, or the end-to-end is blocked by firewalls or certain NAT
    configurations cases), you'll need to use FMS.

  • How many screen monitors can I use with late 2009 Mac Mini?

    hey guys. I have a Mac mini from late 2009 that is connected with 2 screen monitors, and I was wondering if I can add another one through one of the usb ports? If so, can I use a usb to vga adapter to plug it in? thanks for any answers!

    You can add multiple USB monitors or USB video adapters, but realize that USB video is usually quite a bit slower than "normal" video cards.  So don't display Youtube or other moving video on the USB device.  Me personally, I have a Mimo 7" USB monitor and I have my calendar displayed on that.
    You can also get the Matrox DualHead2Go or TripleHead2Go to add more monitors to a single video port.  It has much better performance than a USB video adapter, but of course costs quite a bit more.

  • How many iOS devices can I use with my iTunes Store account?

    Question about the number of devices i can add to an account
    Family of four -
    1 desk top
    3 macbook pros
    3 ipads
    4 iphones
    I am well over the number of devices i can add to my I Tunes account - how can i share movies and music with my family on all these devices? - only want to purchase music and movies once - probably an easy answer out there but i cannot find it.
    Thanks for taking a look at my question.
    Dave

    Not sure what you mean.
    What limit are you talking about?
    You can sync as many iphones, ipods, ipads as you like to one computer/library.
    Authorization applies only to computers.  Iphones/ipad/ipods are not authorized at all.

  • How many multiple SSID can i use with AIR-WLC2112-K9 ?

    Hi.
    Im thinking of using either
    AIR-WLC2112-K9
    or
    AIR-WLC2125-K9
    Im wondering whats the big differens is between these two besides the supported number of Accesspoints.
    I want every Accesspoint to broadcast the same 10-20 SSID. So that the same 10-20 SSID have coverage all over the building.
    Some insight would be much appreciated.
    Regards Tommy Svensson

    Extract from the configuration guide
    Refer line in bold
    "The Cisco UWN solution can control up to 512 WLANs for lightweight access points. Each WLAN has a separate WLAN ID (1 through 512), a separate profile name, and a WLAN SSID. All controllers publish up to 16 WLANs to each connected access point, but you can create up to 512 WLANs and then selectively publish these WLANs (using access point groups) to different access points to better manage your wireless network.
    Note: Cisco 2106, 2112, and 2125 Controllers support only up to 16 WLANs."
    Why you'd be trying to push so many WLANs with a 2100 controller is beyond me, it's not exactly an enterprise device

  • How Many AirPort Expresses can you use with BaseStatio to Exended Coverage?

    I have the airport Extreme N Base station and have one airport N Express hooked up to get better coverage...
    can I hook up more than 1 express to make a bigger coverage area on my property?
    Thanks

    can I hook up more than 1 express to make a bigger coverage area on my property?
    Yes, but you cannot connect the additional 802.11n base stations in series to extend the range as the 802.11n "extend" feature does not support relays like in a 802.11g WDS.

  • How many apple tv can I connect with one account?

    how many apple tv can I connect with one account?

    there are 2 recent posts that suggest issues over 5, one where someone was trying to troubleshoot for a friend or client as they couldn't keep more than 5 connected, and the other where somone had more than 5 but was using 2 separate itunes libraries to share the load - not sure if that was with the same or differing AppleIDs.
    I guess there is always the possibility that things kight vary from one itunes version to the next even unintentionally to allow more.
