  • When i stream from mac mini to apple tv the video jerks

    I have a Mac Mini and a 2ed gen Apple TV , when I stream from the mac to the Apple TV the video jerks and some time frezes, I have checked the WiFi and the Internet all are strong, streaming from my Iphone and Ipad are great. what am i doing wrong

    ...or it could be caused by Apple crap. I'm having the same problem. On a WIRED connection from my MacMini to an Apple TV. The network runs fine with my Windows laptop and iPad. Video streams nicely from my iPad on WiFi, but lots of jerkiness when I watch a movie from my MacMini via Apple TV, regardless of whether I'm on WiFi or wired.
    Doesn't take much to work out that the problem is with the MacMini and/or Yosemite. I'm also having problems with my Internet connection slowing or cutting out intermittently, so I wonder if they're connected.

  • E1000 Dies After Streaming from Mac to Apple TV - Needs Reboot Every Time

    Hey everyone:
    I got an Apple TV a few weeks back and we've been using it a lot, especially to stream Netflix.  However, another application that I got it for was for streaming iPhoto slideshows and iMovie stuff to the Apple TV with Airplay's screen sharing.  This event scenario has played out several times.....  Screen sharing is up and going and it'll be working great.  All of a sudden the TV will go back to the main Apple TV menu on its own.  Upon further review at this point, NONE of my WiFi (iPhone, iPad, etc.) devices will connect to the network and I have to power cycle the router.  Router lights are on, but no one's home.  At this point, it'll boot back up and then everything will be fine, at least for a while.
    Tonight, I was showing vacation pictures to some family and this same process happened twice.  Since I can't seem to figure out how to stop playing a slideshow in iPhoto and then start it again in the middle, it's very annoying.  Here are some relevant troubleshooting points to consider:
    1.  This network problem (or something similar to it) has happened in the past, but whatever it is, streaming a slideshow really seems to aggravate it.  This seems to be the only scenario that I can do to actually INDUCE the issue.  Periods of long uploads or downloads are fine.  Streaming audio from one device and similar usage seems to be fine, but this scenario fails pretty much every time, and not necessarily right away.
    2.  After having this issue tonight multiple times, I stopped trying to stream an actual iPhoto slideshow and just went into the album and scrolled through the pics one by one.  I did this for at least an hour with no issue.  But with an actual slideshow, it failed twice in 30 minutes or less.  And it's happened before tonight as well.
    3.  It doesn't appear to make a difference what application I'm streaming from on the Mac.  Whether it's iPhoto, iMovie, or even Facetime.  
    MacBook Pro Specs - OS X 10.8.2 - Late 2011 Model
    Apple TV - MD199LL/A, v5.0.2
    Router - Linksys/Cisci E1000 - Firmware v2.1.02
    Anyone else have similar experiences or advice?  I've got a fair amount of devices in my home that use WiFi, but there was nothing irregular going on in the house to generate an excessive amount of internal network traffic or anything like that.  My gut says the problem is with the router, but it's only a few months old, and I've updated the firmware to no avail. 
    Thanks a bunch for any advice you may have!

    OK, so I've done a couple things here and both point to the above post about having two devices doing AirPlay at once.
    First things first....  I ran the Inssider tool and looked over my network.  My signal seems to always be between 50 and 60.  My router is on Ch 6 which seems to be the best choice.  There's one other network on that channel, but it's a very low signal strength.  The other ends of the spectrum are pretty well covered by other networks.
    Does this shed any light on this problem?
    Second - I hard wired my MacBook to the router, then screen shared to the Apple TV.  It was up for at least 15 minutes.  At some point, I looked over and it was no longer sharing, but the network *WASN'T* trashed like it normally gets.  So it possibly got dropped for some other reason.
    Third - I forgot that I have an Apple Airport Express that I normally use to stream music to a radio in my garage.  However, this device can be used as a router.  So I set it up this way and created a 2nd network.  I only put the Macbook and the Apple TV on it.  I've been streaming continuously for about 35 minutes now with no issues. 
    So it would seem that there's a firmware issue with this router that won't allow one device to Airplay to another device.  Does anyone else have any other conclusions or suggestions?  Otherwise, looks like I'll be treating myself to some new hardware after Christmas.
    Thanks very much for your help!

  • Very slow streaming from Mac to Apple TV 2

    Hi
    I have recently had an Apple TV2, the main reason was so that we could watch our growing number of homemade family HD films on the TV without having to burn to Blu-Ray etc.
    Problem is we can't.  Music is fine but when I click on a movie (from IPad or iMac) it takes at least 30 mins before it starts, the streaming bar at the bottom hardly moves.
    I see that there are others with similar problems.  I am using my home wireless network (BT Homehub 2) and I have no issues using the Internet, which is faster that streaming from my Mac!!!
    Please can someone help as this is driving me mad.
    Thanks
    Matthew

    Sorry about this: I finally figured it being an iTunes issue.  Restarting my router did the trick.

  • Slow streaming from MAC to Apple TV

    I am using OS Mountain Lion on my MacBook Air.
    For some very strange reason, I am unable to connect easily to Apple TV anymore.  I have the latest updates for all three, iTunes, Apple TV and my MAC.
    It takes an excrutiating long time for Apple TV to read my iTunes library and then several minutes before a selected song actually starts playing.  It seems to me as if it starts once roughly 5 minutes have been streamed to Apple TV.  Playing multiple songs is not realistic.
    However, when connecting from my iPhone or iPad, I do not have the same issues.  Means, it is not the network.
    Any ideas what I might have messed up?
    Thanks!

  • Can apple tv stream from nas?

    I have a Netgear ReadyNas Duo. With all my media from ITunes and the Firefly-Mediaserver is working on it. Can Apple-TV stream this content from my NAS without an working PC?
    Thanks for your answers.

    I will copy and paste what I find out, hope it helps you.
    I have an Airport Extreme, but it works with other routers as well. Find out what communication standard your router supports. DLNA or SMB.
    The Airport Extreme I use does not support the DLNA standards which most external drives like LaCie Fule or DW My Cloud use. I found out it supports the SMB standard though. So a quick search on the App Store with SMB as the keyword showed up a few file managment apps and the first I tried worked!
    It's called FileExplorer Free and can access files on your external drive attached to your Airport Extreme. There were more hits but since the first app I found worked I didn't bother to check out the other apps.
    I tried FileExplorer with songs first and it worked. You can listen to your songs with your iPhone or iPad or Airplay them to your Airport Express and listen to them at your home audio system. I couldn't hear any loss of quality.
    It also works with yorur movies. Just select the movie and watch it on your iDevice or Airplay it to your Apple TV. Works with HD movies as well with no problems. Only downside was that the Apple TV can only display .mp4 files. Even the movies bought on iTunes won't work with the app and the Apple TV. So I had to convert a few movies using the free converter HandBrake.
    FileExplorer works with other types of files like photos or documenst too. Oh and as a bonus: The FileExplorer app can also access your library from the DropBox or Google Drive. Works with NAS drives as well. Looks like you need the paid version though for those extras.
    In case your router supports DLNA search for a DLNA app like 8player.
    So finally I can move my big movie collection to my external drive and still watch it without the need for the Mac or iTunes to run. Hope this helps you too.

  • Minimum requirements for streaming from Mac to Apple TV

    I'm thinking about getting an Apple TV, but one major requirement is that I can share my Mac desktop so I can stream TV shows from cbs.com and other websites and watch them on the big TV. Do I have to have Mountain Lion to do this? Or can I do it with a lower OS?

  • Can Apple TV stream from TV to Mac?

    Will it be possible to do a reversed job with the new Apple TV?
    I have a digital sat receiver that records too. I`d like to have a device that streams my recordings to my Mac Pro.
    Til now I always have to unplug the receiver and drag it through the house and connect it with the Mac.
    Anyone has any thoughts on this one?
    Thanx, Marc

    No, it will not do this. The video only goes one direction in this device.
    There may be some other options available that might help you, though. Exactly what kind of DVR (digital video recorder) do you have? What's the brand and model?

  • Sluggish HD streaming from Mac to Apple TV 2nd Gen

    Hello there,
    just got a new Apple TV (updated to the last iOS) and I'm trying to stream some HD (720p) content from my computer to the Apple Tv. From time to time the movie slows down and it's pretty annoying. The content is fully cached (the white bar is full) so I don't think it's a connectivity problem.
    Content was transcoded with Handbrake to H.264 1280x720 using the AppleTv2 preset.
    What should I do?

    It's more than powerful enough to play compatible content. These are the specifications for content for the Apple TV:
    Video formats
    H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    Audio formats supported
    HE-AAC (V1), AAC (16 to 320 Kbps), protected AAC (from iTunes Store), MP3 (16 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, and 4), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV; Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound pass-through
    Photo formats
    JPEG, GIF, TIFF

  • Streaming from Mac to Apple TV outside of iTunes

    Has anyone tried to stream DVDs playing on their MAC to Apple TV? Or safari content? or anything else? Is Airplay locked into the iTunes infrastructure, i.e. not in iTunes then not allowed to stream?

    I've been having many problems with Home Sharing on my ATV3 for the past few months, ever since the Yosemite Beta up 'til now, but today is the first time I'm having this same issue - where I only get a "Could not connect to [My] Library" message.  I've turned Home Sharing off and on several times, reset routers (ATC and AE), restarted iTunes, reset my ATV... pretty much every web remedy out there.  It was working decently just yesterday, and now I can't stream anything via Home Sharing.  Airplay mirroring works, but I don't want to do that. I shouldn't have to.

  • Amazon Prime on TV using Apple TV streaming from MacBook Pro?

    I know Apple TV has Netflix natively on it, but I am a member of Amazon Prime.  Can I watch Amazon Prime movies using AppleTV via the streaming ability from my MacBook Pro?

    You would have to use mirroring, which requires a Mac from 2011 (or later) and OSX 10.8 (or later)
