Firecore have announced aTV Flash 2.0 for the 2nd gen Apple TV. Version 2 adds a new library view where you can see all your media from multiple devices grouped together in one location. Also in the new version is syncing of your content using trakt.tv syncing, so if you have multiple Apple TVs it will sync watched content between devices.

There is still no support for the current gen Apple TV but if you have a 2nd gen device you can get the addin from Firecore

Details from their blog:

 

Browse by category

The new Library View will now index all your media (even if stored on multiple devices) and automatically organize movies, TV shows and music into easy to use categories such as: genre, release date, star rating, age rating and others. TV shows will also be group by series/season automatically so there’s no more worrying about keeping your folders perfectly organized.

While we think this is a great new way to browse and enjoy your media, the original file/folder based browsing will remain intact and working as an alternative option

 

Fully integrated search

Sometimes you know what you want to watch, and don’t want to browse. With our new integrated search you can do just that. This powerful search tool allows you to search by movie, TV series/episode, song, artist, album or filename. Just start typing and the results will start being displayed instantly. 

Keep it all in sync

Also new for 2.0 is trakt.tv syncing. This is a great feature if you’re trying to keep multiple Apple TVs in sync, as if you watch a movie on the first device it will also appear as watched on the 2nd. Additionally, if you manually mark a movie or show as watched on trakt.tv, it will automatically get marked as watched on the Apple TV. In a similar fashion, Last.fm scrobbling allows you track music plays in your Last.fm profile.
