Few people know, but in fact Apple TV has a fairly broad opportunities for choosing screensavers. There are several options for runoff, including photos National Geographic (most likely you are using them now), as well as trailers, displaying posters of films with iTunes Trailers site, a photo from the category Animals Flowers. One of the users quite possibly others want more. I want to offer you a way that will be used as a source of screensavers your photos from Instagram, Facebook or tumblr.

The whole thing is tied to Flickr, which is supported by Apple TV, which in turn, through IFTTT, using special recipes will be filled photo of your sotsialochek. This may sound confusing, but in reality it is quite simple. Here's how it's done.

1. The first step is creating IFTTT account (if you do not already have one). Depending on the recipe, which you will use, be sure to activate the appropriate channels.
2. Create a Flickr account. I recommend that you register a new one, especially AH these purposes so as not to clutter up your primary (if you are an active Flickr user).

3. Choosing IFTTT recipe, depending on from which source you want to get a photo. Activate it.
4. Set up your Flickr account in the Apple TV. Go to settings and as a screen saver, select Photos - Flickr - Add Flickr Contact. Now the screensaver will serve as the recently added photos from your account Flickr.
5. Choose style screensaver, there are several options. I like, like most Reflections, but what you choose to your taste.

Now that everything is set up, you can forget about these manipulations and provide IFTTT to do all the work for you. Choose a recipe that you like best and go!
