InstaTv Pro is your solution, http://instatv-app.com/I use one of them, and sometimes on HD channels it can be a little flakey at times, but it works for the IPAD. Still trying to get it to work on Roku. No idea on appletv.

Its not possible, since you needed to install drivers on a pc that detects the hdhomerun connected to your router and cable from your cable provider.

There is an ipad app and it looks like it will work.http://instatv-app.com/

No, but Plex (free) can stream and transcode recorded tv to those clients should you add a computer to handle it.

The device has 2 hdmi ports, so the answer is yes if your iPad or roku has hdmi out.

I have mine set up with an Apple TV and an Xbox One. Both are great for streaming media. I have also had it set up with a Roku, but I have since moved that to another TV.

You want to look at an hdmi edid emulator. I tried one but it didn't work, so I went with an AppleTV, and the Compulab product to enable AirPlay mirroring.

It'll support the TV it is connected to and 1 other device at a single time. Unfortunately if you are looking, for example, to watch on your computer at the airport while your wife is on her iPhone at the Dr's office, that will not work. One device can stream from the account/ slingbox at a time.

Yes, you can do exactly what you're asking. You have to go to the settings of the AE and choose the option "Join a wireless network". Select your wireless network from the dropdown list of the networks your device sees, put in the WEP/WPA password for that network if you have one, and make sure you check the box that says "Allow Ethernet clients to connect". You're all done at that point. I use an Airport Express in this configuration as a wireless adapter for all of the components in my media center. I have one AE connected to the wireless network and have the ethernet cable going into a switch that then feeds my XBOX360, PS3, Wii, TiVo, and Apple TV.

No. iTunes and Apple TV both connect without having a device physically connected.

You can stream to multiple AirPlay devices from iTunes on OS/X - but not on iPad/iPhone. You can even set different relative volume levels for each of the multiple devices.

None. The all Rokus connect to your television and your home network. No computer required.

The short answer is no. Your choices to stream from an ipad to tv consists of Apple TV, google chrome cast, and with some tweaking xbmc/playon.

I have mine hooked up through Apple TV and it does all that you asked. Not sure about a direct connection.

No. You will have to use a computer and either stream from the Internet or use built-in DVD drive. This also has an iPod/iPhone 30 pin connector and stream from there. Hope that helps.

I do not know, since I don't have a Roku unit or do streaming video on the computer it is used on.

If you are interested in the streaming aspect then yes - otherwise I don't see a need to. You have plenty of memory and tuners. We upgraded because we only had 2 tuners and not enough memory and I really wanted to be able to stream to my IPAD anywhere. I think that is the main benefit.

Yes you can stream from Netflix, Hulu, amazon video as long as you have it connected wired/wireless to the interweb

Yes! You can stream several different types of media through the Roku. Some examples are: Netflix, Hulu, Vevo, Youtube, Spotify, GooglePlay, Pandora, etc.

Yes, since it doesn't access the files directly. You'll need an iPhone, iPod, Mac, etc using AirPlay to stream to it.
