Playing Flip UltraHD videos on Apple TV

Here is a little (off topic) something for all you Googlers out there.

I tried to find this info and couldn’t. I was amazed how easy it was after all the the crap I tried to try and get Flip Ultra HD videos playing on my Apple TV.

After wading through lots of complicated stuff about incompatible frame rates and resolutions, it really is a two step process once you have the right software.

Get 10% off your gourmet outdoors grub

The nice folks at http://www.thejollygourmand.co.uk/ are giving all readers of Hike Wales a welcome 10% off the tasty grub on their new website. Use the code ‘hike’ (all lowercase).

I have tried quite a few of these now and I must say, I am a big fan. Their pouched meals are a million miles away from the normal boil-in-the-bag offerings. I’ll be putting up a full review of several of their meals soon.

As well as the ‘Look What We Found’ range, they also have the new ‘Sharrow’ range. If you like your food, give them a try.

We make Butternut Squash soup regularly at home and looking at the ingredients in their version, their recipe looks spot on. Looking forward to trying it on my next camping trip.
