Plex's blog about Apple TV is pretty upbeat. They explained their approach here:https://blog.plex.tv/2015/11/02/plex-on-the-new-apple-tv/ They reused a large part of their media server mechanism, which is available on OS X. As long as the search A…

wiggin said: patsu said: It sounds like their margin is 50ms. So they will have to do it before the clocks drifts apart under all conditions. GPS is slow and eats battery. That's why people complain about Maps slowness on the Watch.…

djsherly said: Hmm - the watch needs to be accurate but short of running the space program it's not clear to me why this is a 'feature'. No one cares if your own time is a second or two out. I would focus on the performance of the watch as a…
