Can I use ATV(2) and Airplay from iPad without a network?

I'm going on holiday to a rented villa which has a TV (which I assume has an HDMI port) but there is no internet connection, therefore no router or local WiFi network. I'd like to be able to play content from my iPad and/or iPhone via Airplay on the TV using my AppleTV (2) (which I could easily take with me).
However, experimenting at home, it seems that ATV won't do anything at all unless connected to a WiFi network. Airplay works fine even if the network is not connected to the internet; even purchased content seems to be ok (but DRM free - I haven't bought any non-DRM-free music). However, without a separate WiFi router, ATV doesn't seem to do anything. In particular, my iPad doesn't "see" it, and can't connect to it, unless both are connected to an existing network.
I don't understand why this should be so. Should it not be possible to connect two WiFi devices (eg iPad and ATV) to each other without needing a router?
I can get it to work if I use my MBP to set up a WiFi network by using Internet Sharing to share my (non-existent) ethernet connection using Airport. Airplay then works between my iPad and ATV. However, this is a rather clumsy arrangement - I'd been hoping I wouldn't need to take my MBP with me for that week.
So, am I doing anything wrong, or is this (Airplay from iPad to ATV without a router) just something ATV can't do? And is it "can't do" (ie ATV has the wrong chipset or something) or "won't do" (ie Apple have set it up so it won't work like this)? And if it's "won't do", any chance Apple will provide this functionality in the future?

After submitting this, I found an answer to a similar question last December (Can I create an ad-hoc (WiFi) network between my iPhone and Apple TV?); basically saying that you need the router; but I'll leave this as a question (a) to help others find it, because I looked before I submitted and didn't find a relevant discussion and (b) just in case someone else has a better idea......

You could take the airport and setup a wifi network without Internet. The atv2 can connect without Internet access to a wifi network setup with a router. Be patient when it connects, it tries to establish an Internet connection and it takes a while to find there isn't one!! Eventually it offers to connect without Internet. Once connected you can stream to it as usual. One word of caution - don't disable home sharing, if you do and re-activate it the atv2 seems to need an Internet connection to verify your account.
I did precisely this recently when I had to wait for a couple of weeks for Internet to be connected at my new house.
But, you need the router - unlike iPhone, iPad etc the atv2 will not connect to an ad hoc network.

When I use airplay from Ipad foxtel appication video doesnt come on tv

when I use airplay from Ipad foxtel appication video doesnt come on tv, audio comes. It works ok with other applications

Some apps/providers disable video over Airplay for commercial reasons - check teh foxtel site to see if video airplay is allowed.
Can you use Airplay mirroring instead of airplay?

HT5517 AirPlay from iPad to tv

have iTunes loaded on my PC. Do I need it on my iPad to use airplay to protect from iPad to tv?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.

HT204291 Help with AirPlay from iPad

I'm trying to send a video to my AppleTV from iPad. Sound is heard, but image is main menu. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Websites and third party Apps need enabling before they will allow AirPlay of Video content. Some Website/App developers have not enabled their products, some simply haven't got around to it yet, others have stated that they won't be enabling AirPlay (likely as a result of licensing issues).

Conflict between home sharing from MacBook Pro and airplay from ipad / iPhone?

Just bought an Apple TV, and set it up yesterday. Everything works fine, with one exception. When I have iTunes open and home sharing turned on the Apple TV, when trying to mirror airplay from my ipad 4th gen or my iPhone 5s, I get nothing on the Apple TV, just black screen. It also makes the device run really sluggish.
I've definitely narrowed it down to this conflict, quitting iTunes on the MacBook Pro immediately resolves the issue. So no big deal, right? Just turn off itunes. Except the whole point of buying the Apple TV is to have a central point I can stream all my media in the house from, I'd like to have my MacBook Pro, iMac, ipad and iPhone able to take control of the Apple TV without having to run across the house to turn iTunes on or off on the computers.
This only happens when mirroring, normal airplay audio or video works just fine. MacBook Pro and Apple TV are hard wired Ethernet, ipad on wifi.
Is this a known conflict? Is there any solution?

Normally there ought to be an airplay button in the top menu bar (where also the battery, wifi, clock, etc are located). And in display settings at the bottom there ought to be a drop down menu labelled Airplay Display.
If not, it seems that your Apple TV cannot be found. Are both on the same network? Have you enabled AirPlay in the Apple TV (Settings -> AirPlay set to On)?

Apple TV loses wireless network connection when using AirPlay from iPad or iPhone 5

Our Apple TV loses connectivity to our wireless network while using Airplay from our iPad or iPhone 5. This started occurring after the latest iOS update. We are able to wirelessly stream movies from iTunes without any problem. This issue occurs only when using AirPlay. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have a:
new MBPr 15" late 2013 with dedicated graphics card
new airport extreme base station
3rd generation apple tv
iPhone 5s
200mb download speed (not important, as streaming video on your local network has nothing todo with outside bandwidth)
All equipment is up to date software wise. Airplay mirroring from my laptop to my apple tv is ok. I get frequent lag, pixelation, audio skip (every 10 mins or so).
I'm using the 5ghz specturm to connect to the airport express so shouldn't have any inteference from my neibours (accordiing to iStumbler i'm the only person with a 5ghz setup using channel 30). I've tried connecting apple tv wirelessly and wired. No issues streaming from my iPhone or an iPad!
Surprisingly, using apps such as Beemer or Air Video Server on my MBP work better than native mirroring when it comes to video play back.
Strange when you think how Air Video works:
Video file lives on MBP
iPhone connects to laptop
Video plays on iPhone and is sent to Apple TV via Air Mirroring
Rather than:
Video played on laptop
Video sent to Apple TV
Seems bizzare that my iPhone can handle better streaming than my pro laptop.

Apple TV internet no Airplay from IPAD despite WIFI router

Hi,
My Apple TV2 is connected to my Ethernet wired network, there is a Netgear Modem Router on this network that allows DHCP and WIFI access WPA2 secured.
The Apple TV can connect to the Mac to share the itune Library over wired ethernet.
My Ipad connect to the same Netgear throught Wifi and I can access every Mac on the ethernet network with all apps.
BUT No way to connect iPad Wifi to the wired ethernet connected Apple TV, I mean iPAD wifi to the netgear router to ethernet wire to the Apple TV, exactly what I do for mac's and pc's that are ethernet connected to the netgear Router.
My iPad can connect to MAC with the same network for screen sharing with decicated Apps.
If I unplug the apple TV from Ethernet wire and I configure WIFI, my Ipad connect instantly to the apple TV for Airplay or remote.
Wifi is far too slow for Video display, you have to wait a lot before it start and it jitters, so I need the fester connection of my 1GB ethernet network from Apple TV to MAC, this is working well but then I cannot use ipad airplay...
every Item is using DHCP from the netgear.
I hope this is clear enought.
Did anyone succeded in implementing such a network configuration???
Does Apple TV neeeeddss direct WIFI for using Aiplay from iPad (it's the same for iPhone by the way) ??? WHY (performance, bonjour, marketing lock ??)
Is there a way (by Jailbreak?) to enable ethernet wiring and Wifi on the Apple TV???
Tahnk you for your help
Regards
Luis

The netgear router did not work properly with apple TV, I disconnected its WIFI and use it only as a modem for internet cable to ethernet local network, so no wifi.
I bought a time capsule that I included in my ethernet local network and used its wifi as a bridge for wifi devices (ipad iphones) to local network with internet acces through the modem router.
Then I connected my apple tv2 to my ethernet local network.
With this configuration my ipad or iphone can through time capsule wifi access ethernet local network and use apple TV2 to display ipad/iphone screen/video on my TV. superb indeed...
regards

No Video using Airplay from iPad 2 to Apple TV 2 using authorized App.

I have an iPad 2 and Apple TV 2.   I use Slingbox.
Today, I started watching a show using my iPad as a Slingbox Player.   The source TV was in another state.   The video and audio was good, and the network speed using Speakeasy was above 3MBPS download.   I clicked on the Airplay button at the top, and the video and audio started playing on my HD TV in full HD. Audio and Video were correct and great.
Then I tried to change channels and evenutally I disconnected the Slingbox.   I reconnected the Slingbox and after pushing the Airplay button again, I only got audio (with a little musical note symbol on the tv at the lower lest corner).   I then proceeded to reboot the iPad 2 and i reset the Apple TV to factory settings.   No luck. Reconnecting via Airplay to the TV only will stream Audio.   The network speed stayed above 3MBPS.
I also was unable to connect video using my iPhone, but I was able with my MacBook Air.
Note: I AM able to force mirroring by turning Mirroring "on" (double click on button, swipe app bar to the right, hit Airplay button, and turn on Mirroring).   But although the video is fine, I lose HD and the picture qualtiy is degraded.   Not a good solution.
I now KNOW that I can send a Slingbox signal to my HDTV from my iPad as a Slingplayer and using Airplay. It worked! But only for about 20 minutes, and I am not able to get it back.
This is a real poser.   I hope someone knows how to fix this (but judging from the other questions on this question over the years - I doubt it...:-(

I FOUND THE ANSWER TO MY OWN QUESTION: The Slingplayer will tend to default to SQ (Standard Quality) playback.   Under "Quality" on the Slingplayer screen, there are choices of SQ, HD (High Def) and AUTO.   I selected "Auto" and it went to HD quality. Then, when I enabled AirPlay, a full HD picture appeared on my TV WITHOUT having to select "Mirroring".
I get 10 points...

Airplay from ipad 1 gen to ATV 3 gen "an error occurred loading this content try again later"

Hi everyone!,
I just bought a new Apple tv 3 gen which is great.
My situation is the next. I have an add hoc wifi which obviously cant connect with my ATV cause ATV doesnt have browser to set user password. This connection is not quite fast, so problem added to the previous. The thing is that I want to use my ipad 1 gen to airplay content to the apple tv. It works great with pictures and even music (my own library or spotify streamed music).
The problem comes when I try to airplay video from youtube or embedded video from safari so it keeps saying "an error occurred loading this content try again later".
I tried with my iphone 6 and with an iphone 5 and the same, no video from youtube nor web.
If I try to airplay a video that is inside my phone, it works flawlessly.
the specs say that you need at least 6mb connection, but that seems to stream directly from the ATV cause ATV doesn't have hd to store data, but my ipad streams it and plays it like a charm, but when I airplay to the apple tv got the problem.
I also can stream video from my old mac mini through the network using airparrot but it doesn't allow me to send audio, seems to be problems sending audio and video while streaming..
Any help?
does anyone solved it?
thanks in an advance!

Two problems seems to be causing this:
1- My poor download connection. Testing its speed barely reaches 1.5 download speed, though it's enough to stream movies with ipad, or computers.
2- the router I have connected to my antenna to create my own network. it is a normal 150 mbps tp-link range extender which is used to create a wifi. This 150 mbps might be much more than a half.
I have tried with a 300 mbps router and now I don´t get the error, but it seems that streaming with my ipad and airplay to the apple tv overloads the network and it loads quite slow in my atv.

Issue with Airplay from iPad and iPhone

Hi,
I have installed YUPPTV app into my iPad and connected Apple TV to my HDTV and trying to play my TV channels from YuppTV via AirPlay but after watching them for about 20 minutes it is disconnecting automatically and AirPlay icon is disappearing from my iPad. I really dont know why this is happening.
Please help me on this

Venky

could happen if your wifi router needs a firmware update you can find those at the router makers site

HT4437 Cannot play protected movies on AirPlay from iPad

I cannot play a movie from my iPad to my Apple TV device. I get an error "cannot play protected movies". Why is this when I bought the digital copy with the Blu-ray Disc ?

I'm not aware of any third-party receiver that supports video over AirPlay, so you'll probably need an Apple TV. But then, as long as you have a WiFi network in your house, you should be able to play the movie through the Apple TV to your projector without needing Internet as long as the movie has completely downloaded. For more information on AirPlay see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4437
In some cases, though, people have reported that even with the rental completely downloaded (or so they said) it still asked to connect to the iTunes Store, so it's not 100% reliable, it seems.

Airplay from ipad gives error on AppleTV 2. Says "an error occured loading this content. Try again later"

I have been unable to use our AppleTV 2 for a few weeks now. I can't figure out what is wrong. I am unable to play anything via Airplay when trying to play videos from our iPad. I get the error "An error occured loading this content. Try again later". This happens only when trying to play videos from our iPad, but not videos from my iPhone. I am also unable to stream videos from our Netflix instant queue. I've tested the network, which is fine. The iOS on the iPad is up to date, as is the AppleTV 2. Any other suggestions?
update: i unplugged the apple tv for 60 seconds and its working now.

The video files are mostly M4V not MP4. I did find that if I start playback and select the ATV3 from inside iTunes, the movie will play fine. However, this is not optimal as the iMac is in another room.

Movie rental plays on atv3 only through airplay from ipad

In ATV 3 downloaded rental movie disappears from line up of rented, purchased etc. I can download rental movie on to the ipad 4th gen and iarplay the movie on atv 3 only. I get a message on atv3 to go to settings and downloads but there is no "download" section in the settings for ATV 3. If I select the "check for rentals" I am told no rentals are present.
Basically, I can't play my movie rental through through atv3 but have to relay on my ipad to airplay it to atv 3. Help!

I have spent 2 hrs. searching this forum and others for a solution to this problem. I have the same problem - I have an iPad 2, brand new ATV. We don't have fast Internet at home (can't stream video), so I rented a couple of movies from iTunes onto my iPad. I have a DLink router running (with no Internet connected) - the ATV and iPad are both on that network. When I mirror the iPad, the ATV says (on the TV) - it can't show it (I can't remember the precise message). Tried two movies - same result.
I know you can't move a rented movie you downloaded onto an iPad to your computer. But it seems like you should be able to watch a movie rental from your iPad to your TV via ATV. Is that not the case?
Wow ....

I get audio but no video when trying to AirPlay from iPad to apple t.v.

I tried to play from CCTV app to Apple TV I only get audio when I it the airplay button it tells me to double click home button and swipe left select mirror button but that is not there. When I try to play normal movie already on my iPad it works no prob.

Yes, but if the icon is there, then it's been enabled, right? So if you're getting audio and not video, it's enabled, but not working properly. I have enabled apps, and they barely even get chunks of audio. Useless...

AirPlay from iPad stopped working after upgrade to 4.3

We use our Apple TV to view videos from our iPads and iPhones in our daughters room. Up until today, We had no problems.
So, My AppleTV just asked me to upgrade to a newer version....fine. Now, I see the device listed in the AirPlay menu from our devices, but...when i choose it, the Apple TV just sits at the crotating "please wait" icon until it eventually times out....I double checked the network connectivity and the AppleTV passes the network test fine....and audio seems to work ok, but no video. (for what it's worth, the video is downloaded content from the iTunes store)
My software shows to be 4.3 (2557) on the Apple TV and my iPad2 is running 4.3.5 (8L1).
Is this a known issue?

Having the same exact issue. Anyone else sharing this issue?
