Apple TV Internet radio

Why does internet radio drop every 5 minutes when I turn my TV monitor off to save energy? I am using an HDMI connection.

There are several things AppleTV can do if software modifications are applied.
These are effectively 'hacks' and will not be supported/condoned by Apple.
They may well work but to get these things running takes considerable technical expertise. Your choice if you feel capable.
Any AppleTV updates might well disable these 'enhancements', and if you bricked your AppleTV trying to apply a modification you will be unlikely to receive any warranty support from Apple.
Do not be surprised if Apple delete this thread.

Apple TV Internet Radio - All Radio Stations Gone.

I have three latest generation Apple TV's (on the same Comcast network connected to an up to date Airport Extreme). They all have the latest software update. I never use more than one at a time (they are in different rooms). For the last week, none of them has been able to list a single internet radio station. After clicking on "Blues" I get a black screen with the word "Blues". The same is true for every music type. This happens on all of my Apple TV's. I've tried rebooting and reinstalling. I've rebooted the reletively new cable modem. I get the same thing. What's up? Is there any way to fix it? It all worked perfectly for more than a year.

Problems with Internet Radio on Apple TV

Recently, Apple TV Internet Radio just stopped working, all other functions still work: HomeShare, iTunes, Internet (NetFlix, YouTube). Reset Apple TV, and Internet Radio still won't work, either get a black screen, a spinning wait ball thingy, or an error message (saying 'Can not access Internet Radio") Just before I had the problems whole Apple TV got a little buggy, menus were off a little, NetFlix streaming very buggy, menus didn't come up the same every time ... very odd.
Internet connection is ok, works great, not an internet issue.
Thanks for any help.

It looks like a quite a few people are have this same problem and no solution yet. Here's a different thread where people have been talking about the problem.

Internet radio from Apple TV suddenly not working!!! Please help!

I used to be able to put internet radio stations in a playlist and sync to ATV, and they would show up on the ATV and I could select and listen to them! From what I've read on some other forums, after version 2.02 came out, you could even do that and not have your computer on and itunes open, and could still access and listen to the radio stations on ATV! Which is great!
I hadn't tried this in a while and decided to get the 2.02 update and try. Now, when I select the playlist with the radio stations in it (on ATV) I get a message - "contains no songs"!!
Does anybody know what is going on with this feature? It seems to work for some people but not others! Some think that it stopped working for people with itunes 7.6.1 and higher!! (I have 7.6.2 and OSX 10.4.11)
Just when I had a plan on really taking advantage of this feature, it stopped working!
Can anybody help with this topic? Do people from Apple read and answer these posts?
Thanks,
SB

Wow! That surprised me! I had already tried something very similar to that, and it didn't work!
What you said works! Thanks so much!
And in addition, playing the internet radio from my ATV (rather than from computer & thru airtunes) seems to work better! Before, (using airtunes), some stations would cut out / skip etc... and it doesn't seem to happen now! And I can now, not even have my computer on!
My understanding is that if I ever turn off the ATV, I'll have to do the procedure that you said again correct?
Thanks so much again!
It would be nice if Apple could now have the details / info that shows up in itunes when you play a internet radio station (song info etc...) show up on the screen on ATV - right?!!!
(for me, right now - just says: "Proton Radio - unknown album")

How do I get to Internet Radio Stations on Apple TV After The Upgrade?

I recently updated my Apple TV software and can no longer get the internet radio stations list. Is there no way to access that now that Apple TV Radio is all the new itunes radio? I listen to the local public radio station on my TV and had a lot of other channel saved which are now gone.
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple community.

Any suggestions why Internet Radio on Apple TV 2 is not working?

Hi - I've had my Apple TV2 for over a year now. Everything has always worked fine without any issues until about a month ago when the Internet Radio feature simply stopped working. I have no idea why - all software is up to date, I've checked the network connections, conducted the test, etc., and everything works. I can still use my iTunes library, watch movies, use YouTube, etc. Just the radio function in the Internet section stopped working.
The error message I get is "Cannot access Internet Radio stations. Check your network configurations and try again." I've checked the configurations, and everything works like a charm, but I still get the error message.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Time flies when you're having fun, but it's not been out a year yet so should be still under warranty.
Before getting repair/replacement from Apple, try a factory reset by hooking it up to computer using a microUSB lead alone, starting iTunes and restoring software to (current) factory settings.
Unless there's been a change to your network/router/firewall i can't see any obvious reason for it to stop playing internet radio unless the software's corrupted some how. Guess you've tried unpowering from the mains then restarting it which can sometimes fix odd problems?

Internet radio and Apple TV update 6.0

Has internet radio been eliminated with the 6.0 update to Apple TV, or is it hidden somewhere as it is in the new iTunes update.
The primary reason I bought a 2nd Apple TV was strictly for internet radio through a housewide sound system. To remove it from the software almost seems criminal to me. I get that iTunes has its "own" radio now, but surely Apple must realize there's a world out there beyond them. Maybe not.
So - can I access internet radio through my Apple TV?

Internet radio is available through the 'Radio' Option.

Apple TV 2.0.2 - Internet radio keep being removed from the playlist

Here is my problem,
I add an internet radio to my itunes, sync my AppleTV 2.0.2 , shutoff the computer.
I go to my AppleTV, start listening to my radios, up to now everything is fine.
but after a few days, the internet radio playlist disappear from the ATV.
I tried manytime to resync, works for a few days, then the playlist disapear again.
Anyone having this issues ?

Everyone. Do a search on "radio" and you'll find plenty of threads on this topic. We all hope Apple will fix this in an update .... it would be nice to have radio playlist that works and doesn't disappear!

I have sound but no video while using the Apple TV-it says Internet Radio, does anyone know how to correct it?

I'm wondering if anyone can help, i can hear the audio and on my TV it says Internet Radio. When i hit the icon for Apple TV, it is selected, but still no Video. I'm trying to air play from my iPad Directv App so i can watch the game on a big screen.
Thanks!!!!

Apple says they are aware and working on it. The Sound is "not" lost and may be retrievable after their fix. It is an iMovie problem. It may take a while as they are preoccupied with the new "Mountain Lion" release. In the meantime I am saving my movies on my MacBook. If you can record your sound with a setting other them FPEG 2 that may help. I can't, so I am stuck. Big trip to NWT in late August so I am holding my breath. Hope they are faster than fixing the Numbers upload to iCloud.

Internet radio is not loading in apple tv

2nd Gen. Apple TV loses Internet Radio Saved Favorites

OK I'm a little unhappy now. I've taken the time to save some favorite internet radio stations on my 2nd Gen. Apple TV which I'm otherwise very happy with. For reasons unknown they have disappeared twice! This was a time consuming process that I was not planning on duplicating. I've got pictures that I've deleted from my computer that won't disappear from my screen saver and intentionally saved favorites that I can't find. Any help?

I have a 2nd gen Apple TV wired to my Yamaha receiver with HDMI switching. If I start an internet radio feed while the TV is on and then turn off the TV the Apple TV pauses the feed. I can restart the feed by pressing play on the Apple remote. Of course this isn't all that difficult but I'd like to know if there is something I can do to prevent the feed from cutting out/pausing just because I shut off the TV. Thanks for your help!
Your ATV2 is getting a signal through the HDMI cable, probably per HDMI spec. I could turn off my old ATV when connected via component cables...... Don't know of a solution other than through feedback to Apple.

Streamng internet radio through Apple TV

I would like to use my new Apple TV to stream internet radio over my home audio system. But when I look at my internet radio playlist on the Apple TV, I get the message "No songs in this playlist". The radio streams are fine through iTunes. Am I missing something or is this just not possible? If not, why?

To stream radio stations you need to create a playlist and then drag and drop the stations to the list. To do that go to iTunes radio and copy and paste to the playlist. If you don't know how to do this I can further explain. Tip: Name the playlist "-Radio" and then the list will appear before the rest of them for easy access. Its the dash that does it.

Internet radio via apple tv

is it possible to stream internet radio via apple tv?

I subscribe to Live365 internet radio (thousands of stations) and it plays through my Apple TV which is connected to my receiver to play through my surround sound system. It works great, however, when I select my radio station in Live365, it downloads into my download folder. You then have to click open the download which opens in iTunes. Make sure your speaker designation in iTunes is Apple TV.

IPod speaker/dock that can wirelessly stream internet radio from our Apple TV?

Our Apple TV 2 is downstairs. I use it to listen to internet radio streams all day. I'd love a speaker system for upstairs that can dock and play iPods, but also stream internet radio from the Apple TV downstairs. Does such a product exist? TIA for any pointers.

Your church services presumably have a specific internet address which you view in a browser?
If so and you have a fairly new iMac you could start playback on the iMac in a browser and use Airplay Mirroring to send a 'copy' of what is on-screen to your TV using AppleTV to display it. The same would apply to modern iPhones (4s and later) and newer iPads provided the phone can play them in a browser (maybe not if the stream id Flash based).
AirPlay Mirroring
Requires a second-generation Apple TV or later. Supports the following Mac models:
iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)
AppleTV does not have an internet browser. It is primarily a device to play content from your local iTunes library or from iTunes store via the internet (purchases or rentals). It does have certain 'channels' like YouTube, Netflix etc which you are probably not interested in.
AppleTV needs to be connected to the same network as the iMac.
If your iMac is too old for Airplay Mirroring, something like AirParrot might work in software.
