This wiki page describes an easy process (still in alpha and invite-only) in which to install Boxee, an open source media player, on an Apple TV. With it, you can watch many more media formats than Apple TV currently supports – mainly DivX and Xvid files (which should be supported but aren’t). This “hack” would effectively make the Apple TV into a much more generic network-attached media box, which is something I’ve been wanting for a long, long, time.
