Free Apple TV utilities

The folks at MacMerc have compiled a list of six free, must-have utilities for the Apple TV. We know how much everyone loves hacking their Apple TVs, and now you can join in fun.
  • Video Flash Downloader will allow you to pull video directly from YouTube (or other flash-based sites).
  • iSquint encodes video for the iPod, which the Apple TV can also use.
  • TiVo Decode Manager will change the files on a Series 2 TiVo into Apple TV-friendly MPEG format. It also preserves metadata.
  • Copernicus is a screen capture application that, we guess, will let you watch yourself work on tv. Because you're that darn good.
  • HandBrake rips DVDs into MPEG 4 format (among others).
  • Lostify is a meta tag editor, which you can use with the files you capture with your TiVo or EyeTV.
So get started! While we're on the subject, do you have a favorite that's not on the list?
