Airplay constantly pauses with 1 movie only

Hi,
I have been using the apple tv for a while, with everything largely fine.   However recently I downloaded the movie "wizard of oz" and when I play this the apple tv constantly pauses (ie every 10 -30 seconds).  Nothing like this happens with any other streaming.
Any ideas how to fix this?

The iPad doesn't actually need to have the movie on it, all it's doing is getting the Apple TV to download it from the Internet, which you can get the Apple TV to do directly.
The odd thing seems to be that the Apple TV can download from the Internet without a problem, but not from your computer, the inference being that you have a problem with your network between the computer and Apple TV or a problem on the computer itself.
Have you tried restarting your router and trying again.

    Just as a preventative measure try running Disk Utility in the Utilities Folder inside the Applications Folder. Run Repair Disk Permissions on the whole hard drive.
    According to this disuccsion group posting on MacRumours.com, Error -50 is a permissions error and repairing permissions may be enough to get you going again:

    Okay, you need to contact support definitely about what's going on. Here is a form that will send an e-mail into support for you:
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    As far as the prices, the difference is likely the laptop version is the SD version and the iPad one is available in HD. That's the only reason you'll see a price difference. It has nothing to do with the device with movies/movie rentals. Apps yes, these no.

  • HT204400 We were watching a movie from iTunes on our Apple TV and it froze with about 10 minutes left... just a spinning disk.  Network was fine, I could run Netflix, I could choose other content... but the movie only gives spinning disk when I go to it.

    We were watching a movie from iTunes on our Apple TV and it froze with about 10 minutes left... just a spinning disk.  Network was fine, I could run Netflix, I could choose other content via AppleTV or iTunes... but the movie only gives spinning disk when I go back to it.  I confirmed settings on AppleTV and reset the unit without any result.  iTunes indicates I have 21 hours left on the rental.  I would like to be able to finish the movie and not have to rent it again.
    Any thoughts?  Anything that needs to be done in Samsung TV settings?

    How did you verify network was fine?
    Netflix adapts to the network whereas iTunes needs a consistently solid connection. What other content did you try?
    What is your current connection via speedtest
    Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of the network
    Make sure DNS is set to automatic.

  • My nano arbitrarily moves from playing to paused, with no human interaction

    My 1st gen nano arbitrarily moves from playing to paused, with no human interaction. This seems to be worse when it is in my Altec Lansing InMotion speaker, but it happens when it is not in the speaker as well.
    Reset didn't do anything helpful.
    It ran out of warranty 2 days ago.
    Suggestions?

    I've also tried resetting my iPod nano (2nd gen)and nothing helped with the pausing issue. But one thing that did help for awhile was resetting the nano, deleting the songs and restarting it....

  • Why can't the APPLE TV use AIRPLAY SPEAKER-OUT for movies/videos?

    I can't find one good explanation on why the Apple TV can't use the Airplay Speaker-Out for Movies/Video content; only for audio/music. Does anyone have any insight into this?
    For example, I have a video on my Macbook Pro (or my iPad or my iPhone) and I can stream the video via the Airport Express to my 2nd gen Apple TV, but I can't stream the audio of this video from my Apple TV back to the Airport Express and the speakers attached to it. If I had digital speakers connected to the Apple TV I assume it wouldn't be an issue, but at the moment, I only have analog speakers connected to the Airport Express... and I CAN do this with music only content, but then it becomes silly because in that case, I can just as easily stream music directly to the Airport Express from my chosen device (iPhone, et al.) without going through the Apple TV, but for video/movies, you need the Apple TV for the video; yet you can't use the Speaker-Out for the audio of that video and it just doesn't make sense, unless I am missing something...
    Any help is greatly appreciated (a google search came up with nothing useful at all.)

    It's not a flippant answer, no-one here will know for sure why Apple have chosen to do this. So in light of the fact that you won't get a definitive answer here, I suspect it doesn't matter because you aren't going to change anything, you just need to accept it.
    FWIW, I don't think licensing issues have anything to do with it. I think Apple expect you to have a sound system connected by either HDMI or optical and on that basis any connection via an airport express would be in another room and why would someone in another room want to listen to a movie without being able to see it.
    Apple differentiate themselves from others by providing features that everyone wants, they don't cripple their creativity by catering for the few like other companies. I'm sorry but I suspect you are one of the few here.

  • IPod constantly pauses during use

    very frustrating. it pauses constantly. i am not touching it and it pauses. i put it on hold while playing and it pauses. it's only two months old. i am using the headphones that it came with. they work fine. HELP!!!

    This is apparently a very common problem -- stalling, freezing, etc. Mine started doing this several months ago, and it has continued to deteriorate. It would stall for no reason, freeze, wouldn't turn off, wouldn't turn on. Sometimes I would plug it in and it would look okay, then begin to freeze up again, sometimes for a short time, sometimes for a long time. Finally, I tried resetting, and sometimes it helped but sometimes not. The problem continued to get worse. (If you look around the discussions, you will see it has happened to a lot of people -- I hope the Apple "people" keep tabs on what's going on). It has been extremely frustrating to me -- I have had my iPod for less than a year. Tonight I tried using the "restore" though I really hated to do it. It was much faster and easier than I thought, and I was able to reload everything from my library surprisingly quickly. AND it seems to be working okay now, but since the problem is so intermittent -- time will tell.

  • I have a late 2011 model MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion.  I love the AirPlay mirroring feature with Apple TV...BUT, how do I mirror with TVs that don't have Apple TV?  I used to run a cable from my mini display port to the HDMI input of a TV.

    I have a late 2011 model MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion.  I love the AirPlay mirroring feature with Apple TV...BUT, how do I mirror with TVs that don't have Apple TV?  I used to run a cable from my mini display port to the HDMI input of a TV.  This feature seems to be lost in the Mountain Lion upgrade.  Did Apple feel that once Mountain Lion came out that EVERYONE would have Apple TV?  There are no settings in System Preferences/Display like there used to be...only for AirPlay Mirroring.

    Running a cable to the HDMI port is still supported. (and still works on mine).
    If the Arrangement tab in System Preferences > Displays isn't present then it doesn't recognize the physical connection.  Double check all cables.  If that doesn't work try a PRAM reset:

  • How to resolve bug RC4 encrypt-decrypt on iPAD with AIR15 only

    Hi everybody,
    I have some trouble with AIR15 only, In the past, I created a small game on iPad It could send or receive messge from server. I used lib as3crypto.swc encrypt or decrypt message (RC4). But when I upgrade to AIR15 encrypt-decrypt cannot work ( Another thing about this crash is that it only happens with a release (adhoc or appstore) build but NOT with a debug build). I check so many time but i don't know what is problem here.
    Please help me, thanks so much any advice.
    P/S: My game have many swf files (code and resource). I must combine multiple SWF files into one.
    Class RC4.as
    import com.hurlant.crypto.prng.ARC4;
    import com.hurlant.util.Base64;
    import com.hurlant.util.Hex;

      rc4.init(byteKeys);
      rc4.decrypt(byteText);
      return Hex.toString(Hex.fromArray(byteText));

    Sorry, exact message is "this movie could not be played".
    There are hundreds of posts about this message but no one states a clear solution to the problem.
    Your help will be much appreciated.
    Thank you.

  • How to move only subset of data from one database to another?

    Both source & destination are Oracle11g databases.
    The requirement details are as below,
    1) The database contains static as well as transactional data for telecom domain.
    2) We have to move region-wise data from one database to another.
    3) There are around 10 regions.
    4) The region wise data extraction from source db is based on around 40 to 50 tables. Rest of the tables contains
    static data & it will not change.
    5) The volume is around 1 million subscribers per region.
    6) The migration is required because
    a) The client is upgrading its base product which uses this database
    b) There is a change in structure of static tables
    c) Hardware upgrade
    d) The client want to start with single region on new database & rest of the regions will be operated from old
    database.
    7) Keep execution time to very minimum.
    I am thinking to have solution as below,
    1) Create destination database with upgraded db structure (as mentioned in 6b)
    2) Create database links to access source db in destination db.
    3) Write SQL queries to fetch data from all the respective tables for a specific region
    4) Write separate PL/SQL blocks for each table to fetch data from source db & insert into respective table in
    destination db
    a) Use FOR ALL & bulk collect to improve the performance
    b) Divide table data into multiple chunks & execute parallel batches (around 10) to insert the data
    5) Validate pre & post counts to verify the success of migration
    Is there any other better way?
    Regards,
    Sandeep

    How to move only subset of data from a partiular table by using transportable tablespace?
    E.g. SUB table using SMP_SUB tablespace contains subscriber data in source database.
    The indexes defined on SUB table are under SMP_IDX_SUB tablespace
    The subscribers data can be categorized by different regions, say region_id column. Then how to move data & indexes of SUB table from source db to destination db?
    any specific example would be helpful.

  • Big Blunder with movies in iPhoto '08 and web galleries

    I've just upgraded to iLife '08 and found a REALLY BIG BLUNDER in the use of movies with iPhoto and the web gallery. As it is, the new 10GB limit won't be enough for diddly squat of movie hosting.
    I've got a Canon A640 that saves to .JPG and .AVI formats. iPhoto opens a gallery with them just fine.
    But .AVI movies take up ~50MB per minute of video. A 2 minute movie I made is about 100 MB, while a 9 minute movie is 550MB in size. So while it's fine to view them on your desktop, you do NOT want to upload them!
    However, iPhoto has no ability to convert .AVIs to any other formats.
    I went into iMovie and manually selected each .AVI clip and Exported it as "medium" to my local drive. Ok, this gets you a .m4v file that's much more workable.
    Going back to iPhoto ... uh, gee, "iPhoto cannot recognize that file format".
    The new iMovie can export exactly ONE format -- .m4v -- and iPhoto thinks it's an iTunes file and won't work with it. Thanks a lot guys. What movie format IS iPhoto expecting to use, exactly?
    I went over to the Apple store and presented my dilemma to one of the geniuses there, and the ONLY solution he could recommend was to get a license for Quicktime Pro and use it to do the conversion to .MP4. But, even then, iPhoto won't recognize .MP4 files in your folder. You have to explicitly import them. Again, iPhoto seems to like movies, but ... in what formats?
    As an aside, MP4 files are smaller than M4V files, but the additional compression takes quite a toll on the image quality.
    I filled up two 4GB SD chips with a couple dozen photos and several movies. The way iPhoto works right now, the only way to get these movies onto a .Mac gallery is to upload them directly, which is NOT a good idea! They take up an ENORMOUS amount of disk space, take FOREVER to upload, and I doubt users will find it very fun waiting for a 500MB download to view them (which download will take longer than the length of the video being viewed).
    iPhoto needs a way to recognize .AVI files and STRONGLY discourage you from uploading them -- offering instead to convert them to something more useful, like .M4V format, WITHOUT having to swith over to iMovie or use Quicktime or some other program to do the conversion.
    It also needs a way to tell it to handle other movie file format besides .AVI files.
    Thanks

    Errrr.... you guys are totally missing the point.
    Apple sells little Canon cameras, and they have them sitting right next to just about every Mac in the store. Ever noticed them? Maybe you own one? (I suspect not because you probably would have noticed this already if you did.)
    These Canon cameras take two types of images: stills are .JPGs and movies are .AVIs. Got that?
    JPGs are compressed and "ready to use".
    AVIs are UN-compressed and NOT "ready to use". You can play them locally and they look fine. But there's not much to tell you they're HUGE FILES. When I say "huge", I'm taling 50 MEGA-BYTES PER MINUTE huge. That means a measley 2 minute clip is 100 MEGA-BYTES in size. OK? Now, what's the download rate on your iPhone? How long will it take you to view a 2-minute AVI file? But, surely, nobody is dumb enough to load them onto their Web Gallery, right? Keep on reading.
    See, when you connect the camera to the computer, most people have their system set to open something like iPhoto or Aperture when the camera is connected. Agreed? (Maybe YOU don't, but LOTS of people DO.)
    Notice that you can choose to have iMovie or Final Cut Pro or something else launch when you plug the camera in as well. It's up to you. Most people launch iPhoto - or Aperture if they've got it.
    It so happens that iPhoto '08 loads in in BOTH sets of files. Why in the world iPhoto is happy reading in AVI files is beyond me, considering it won't recognize M4V files and has to be slapped to get it to take MP4 files. But it happily reads AVI files with no problem.
    Now, if you've got your iPhoto set to AUTOMATICALLY SYNCHRONIZE with your WEB GALLERY, what happens?
    Well, if you're like me and you filled two 4-GIGA-BYTE Flash cards with movies, and iPhoto launches (like when you plug the camera or flash memory into the computer) and starts to SYNCHRONIZE with your WEB GALLERY, what's gonna happen?
    Did you actually TELL it to upload those files? NOPE! But it DID!
    Several HOURS LATER your computer will finish UPLOADING 8 GIGA-BYTES of MOVIES to your WEB GALLERY! And if you interrupt it, well, it'll happily start over when you turn the computer back on again.
    That's really nice since .Mac now has a 10 GByte limit. Two and a half 4-GB flash cards will fill up your .Mac account if you shoot movies with your Canon camera, have iPhoto set to launch when you attach your camera, and/or have it set to automatically synchronize with your web gallery.
    All I'm saying is that if iPhoto is going to work with movie files, it should NOT blindly upload AVI files, NO WAY. I'd much prefer it if it would let you apply some kind of compression to them, eg., turn them into MP2 files. (MOV files are even bigger than AVI files, from what I can tell.)
    We're not talking about what you THINK about doing. We're talking about the DEFAULT BEHAVIOR of the program for a VERY COMMON SCENARIO -- that you don't HAVE to think about.
    So it's very possible that while you're happily editing your AVI movies in iMovie or Final Cut, iPhoto is happily sitting in the background uploading the same files to your Web Gallery. And you are clueless.
    Is that making sense now?
