i am about to get an apltv2 and wanted to ask if you can pick up playon server from this device?

or do you need to "pioson" the device first in order to use playon?

also how well does plex and the "other" apps work ?

i know netflix has been shown to have a few issues for some, so thought i would ask!

thanks

To use Playon you need to jailbreak and then install something like XBMC to connect to the Playon server.

ok so playon will only work if you install xbmc then and not entirely if you just jailbrake it then correct?
