ATV 3 doesn't play non iTunes 1080p video via Airport Router

Please advise what could be the problem. I was using a Zyxel nbg460 router and it was paying nice probably converted from MKV movies in 1080p, loading hem almost instantly and playing without a problem. But when I hooked up Airport Extreme 5-th gen, it stoped playing them. It buffers and buffers and nothing happens. Altough It plays 720p really nice. Help me please, because I bought 2 more Airport Express for extending wifi over my house, but it doesn't work.... Plugged back old router and it is all playing nice. The cause of change is that Zyxel restarts very often by itself...

Well, I have had my iPod for about 3 years, it is a 4th generation non-video 40 GB. One day it just stopped working, and now it does not play any songs. when I turn it on it makes this odd whirring sounds that computers make when they try really hard to do something. I cannot charge it, and it is not recognized by iTunes. Also when I turn it on, I get the apple.com/ipod/support (or whatever it is) screen. Needless to say, my warranty is expired, and so I cannot do anything for it except get a new battery, or buy a new one. Is there any way to fix this problem, or anyone out there who is experiencing the same thing?
I'm having the exact same problem with my wife's iPod. However it will play about 3 seconds of a song and go onto the next song.
If there is anyone out there that can help please do!

Youtube app doesn't play my own private video

Hi
I am using youtube iphone app but it doesn't play my own private video even thought I have logged into my youtube account.
Could some please help me how to play it and also recommend me any good youtube client app which is clean and easy to use.
Thanks

Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Doesn't play songs, "itunes is not configured for use with mac-formatted"??

Hi, new ipod shuffle. Seems to charge fine, all indicator lights function as expected. Everything looks fine in itunes. But it doesn't play songs. I have the most recent versions of itunes and the ipod software. Re-set, updated, and restored, nothing works. Even restored using the restore utility. Re-started computer. Checked for volume control. Won't play songs. Tried different file types. Songs play fine from itunes library and from the device's library within itunes. Tried different headphones. Hooked it up to computer speakers. Turning volume all the way up on device and speakers, heard some very faint rhythmic static, so my guess is the jack socket (or whatever you call it) is just messed up, but it seems weird that it can transfer power and data to the device but doesn't work for sound...
The only other issues that have come up is that the drive disappears in explorer once it syncs with itunes. Other people who've noticed this seem to have completely different problems so I don't think it's related.
Also, I have MacDrive on my computer. And when it starts up with the ipod plugged in, MacDrive offers the message "Itunes is not configured for use with Mac-formatted ipods." It offers to automatically reconfigure itunes so it can read mac-formatted ipods. Since I've restored the device, I don't see why formatting should be an issue so I say "no."
Should I try letting macdrive do its format thing? Should I try formatting the ipod disk on the My Computer menu? Or should I just email apple and tell them the jack's busted?
Thanks for any thoughts!

Playing Non-iTunes MP3s

I just purchased and downloaded an MP3 from a site other than iTunes. The file downloaded fine, then what appeared to be the QuickTime player launched and played the song perfectly. But now I can't seem to get access to that file anymore. I don't see a way to launch QuickTime to replay the song. It doesn't show up when I launch the iPod app. I accessed my iPhone's contents via PhoneView and it was still inaccessible. How can I play this non-iTunes song file on my iPhone?

True another browser app will let the poster play the song again but the issue is he bought the song and wants it on his computer and able to play with his other music. So another browser is not going to help. The answer to the problem is what was already stated, buy music from the iTunes store app or from your computer and put into iTunes.
Also I see you constantly post info about your "Round Up" I understand you are trying to get visitors to your site as you feel your personal opinions may help the user (and may very well do that), but please keep to the facts of the post and stop advertising. You also mention stuff about level 0 and 1. You are allowed to post links as any user. Now if that link is nothing more than SPAM and then yes it is not allowed and why a post may be removed. So looks like you have had issues in past of getting them removed and now trying to find another way to post without getting in trouble.

The Podcast app doesn't group non-itunes files correctly on devices (but does in itunes.) How can I change this?

I tried using the Podcast App but found it didn't group non-itunes downloads correctly on the iPhone or iPad whereas with just the Music and Video apps previously, it did. I have been into the file settings and change every attribute but it still clumps them all into one groups. In itunes on the PC they do group correctly. Anyone else had this problem? Can it be corrected?
I was happy to delete Podcast app and go back to just Music & video apps but now I now fine that if I want, for example, to download TedTalk podcast I can't.

I am dealing with the exact same issue.. any advice would be greatly appreciated!

M4v doesn't play in iTunes

Hi. I have an m4v file type that will not play in iTunes. I have opened with iTunes (default) but it just don't play. I have tried manually importing, yet nothing happens. Someone please help me. Thanks.

Quicktime / iTunes / Apple TV throw up a lot of errors with M4V / MP4 files that other media players do not.
I recommend downloading VLC as it is a much better media player than quicktime. If your file plays in that it is more than likely something simple with the Meta Data or chapters that is causing the error.
To fix the M4V file without having to transcode, I recommend downloading Metadata Hootenanny (FREE) from http://www.applesolutions.com/bantha/MH.html
Using that, add a movie chapter (VIEW > CHAPTERS) and save the file. It should save the file within a .mov container fairly quickly with the same quality video. You only need to save one chapter (more if you want) as iTunes stalls if it cant find chapter references in the M4V files. That .MOV file can be imported into iTunes and played on an Apple TV.
More errors with MP4 files that cannot be imported into iTunes can be fixed by simply remaning the file extension from .mp4 to .m4v
MP4 file that give the error " invalid public atom " when opened with iTunes can be fixed using VLC. Open the video with VLC and FILE > STREAMING/EXPORT WIZZARD
Select Transcode / Save to file, then select video from existing playlist item. Ensure the video / audio transcode options are UNTICKED as you only want to quickly change the container to .mov
Save the file and iTunes will be able to play / import.

HT201177 How can I resolve the HDCP issues when playing 1080p video via HDMI to my HDTV?

Palying back any video (iTunes 1080p purchase, Netflix) via the HDMI port results in screen issues on my HDTV. FLickering, odd noises, etc. I did get a HDCP warning but my TV is HDCP compliant. Any ideas? Thanks.

Not that I could find.
The easiest workaround that I could find is a trimmed piece of Black Construction Paper taped over the Mac's display.
Alternatively, you could use an external Mac Compatible Web Cameras and then close the lid, but that is a higher cost option.

AirPort Express - watch video in itunes with SOUND via AirPort Express?

Ok I read it is only possible via Airfoil...
Sorry to bother you guys - no idea how to delee this...
Hello everyone!
I was overly excited to receive the airport express 802.11n Wi-Fi
and everything works wonderfully. But some trouble arose non the less:
The reason for the wireless AirPort was to allow projecting Videos via a Beamer on the wall
and have fantastic sound, even though the soundsystems are standing elsewhere.
But when opening itunes (it works with normal music just fine) and starting a purchased video there,
there is no way I can choose the external soundsystem to be used to generate the sound.
This drives me nuts! It would be really silly to not be able to use a soundtransmitter by apple
when watching a video by apple's itunes, wouldn't it? That makes no sense.
Please tell me there is a way to make it work....
Thank you for your time and help!
Lia

Apple does offer an option that does both. It's called the Apple TV.

Play DVD with audio sound via Airport Express speakers

Is it possible to play my DVD with audio sound via my Airport Express speakers?
I can play music with iTunes trough these speakers, it would be nice if I can hear my DVDs aswell.
iMac intel core duo Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Not using Front Row.
The real issue here is that audio and video stream at different speeds and it is hard to maintain sync. You know how when you hit play within iTunes it takes a while for the song to start through the speakers? It's the same with the DVD. So you'd need to work an offset into the audio when playing a DVD and it's not an exact science.
You can download VLC player and mess around with the offset, then you'll also need a program like Airfoil to be able to force audio through the airport express.
Good luck!

Can I play tracks from my iPod via Airport Express on only from my laptop?

I can play tracks from my laptop thorugh my Bose Lifestyle Airport Express. Is there a way to play tracks from my iPod Touch through my Bose system via Airport Express? My Airport Express is set up as a client to my Sky Broadband wireless router.

I set up my laptop to my Bose Lifestyle System via Airport Express. It may be different for MAC but I just downloaded the Airport Express software and followed the on-screen set-up procedure, which includes entering your WI-FI key. I do not have an iPad. You need to select Airport Express in iTunes as your sound media. This is easily switched by an icon in the bottom right corner of the screen. You will need to switch this back if you want to revert to using the laptop speakers.

The sound doesn't play when I watch videos on my nano 3g

I can import the videos into itunes (mpeg), and then converting the selection for an ipod. I then put the video onto the ipod, but when I go to play it from the nano, the sound doesn't work. please help.

It's an encoding problem: iTunes doesn't like multiplexed mpeg video. Doesn't matter if you convert them or not, the audio will still be messed up. I recommend using a 3rd party video converter (like Nero Recode) that can handle all types of video (mpeg/wmv/mov).

Podcast doesn't play in iTunes

Hello guys,
I have made a video podcast page. This is what I did:
- clicked File>New Page, then I did choose Podcast page template from iWeb library
- changed text
- dragged and dropped my own video clip (.m4v QT which is supported format for apple TV)
from my desktop into the template's video well
- clicked Publish to the folder (inputing my website URL before publishing)
- testing from my desktop was good
- copied and pasted all files generated by iWeb from my folder onto my website (using Fetch)
- opened Safari, everything works fine, video is playing from my webpage fine
- subscribed to the podcast
- iTunes opens, but video does not play
So is there any additional step I have missed?

Yeah, I think what's happening is that when you subscribe, it's downloading the file. When playing through the store, it's streaming it. I believe it has to do with how the mime types are configured on our web server, although I definitely could be wrong about that. I'm still investigating how the videos were encoded, but I don't think that's the issue.

Blu Ray doesn't play 1 of 3 videos on disc

I desperately need some help with an issue I am having with a Blu Ray I created with Adobe Encore CS5 for PC.
I have three videos on there but only 2 of the videos play when viewed in a home theater style Blu Ray player.
All three videos were created in Adobe PP CS5 and exported with the same exact settings (H.264 Blu Ray) but one video on the disc has a black screen when played. The audio plays in the background, though. The odd thing about this is the disc plays perfectly on my two Blu Ray drives at home but my client informed me about the issue with three of their players. I then tested it at a friends on their player and saw the issue.
I set up the whole project in encore and it test builds with no issues. It's also showing that my videos were transcoded fine since it doesn't default to transcoding them through Encore (see image).
I can't figure out what the heck is going on but it's driving me crazy that 2/3 of the disc is flawless but the first video on there doesn't work on home theater players.
Anybody hear of this before??? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Thanks for the reply.
One timeline is strictly audio (it was a wedding and they asked for their ceremony audio).
I'm not sure why the one audio is unstranscoded. This last round of re-transcoding I did vbr 2 pass but other than that I stuck with H.264 Blu Ray options in Media Encoder. The FINAL.m4v is the video that isn't playing but the audio FINAL.wav does play (the one that is listed as unstranscoded)
I'm going to give it another round of transcoding tonight to see what happens.

ATV doesn't show all iTunes content for streaming

I have several movies in mt iTunes library that I want to stream via ATV. Not all of them appear under 'My movies' in the ATV menu, however. All show in my movies folder in iTunes and I can play all of them on my iMac. Any idea why they won't all show in ATV? iTunes and ATV software are updated to current versions.

are they "ticked" in the main itunes library window (see image).
unticked items are not made available to appletv.

QuickTime 10.1 does not seem to be compatible with OSX Lion - clicking on the displayed file window switches to another displayed app, doesn't play or control the video.

If I open a movie file (appears to be any type - .mov, m4v, mv4) it displays on the desktop, but when clicked, the Mac reverts to another open application (immediately UNDER to point of the mouse click) and not the displayed movie file. It appears the screen mapping is flawed...
Anyone else have this problem? (does not appear to be a problem with QT7) Running OSX Lion 10.7.3 and QT Player 10.1 (501.8) - all most current as far as I can tell...

Yes, same problem. The active clickable area appears to be shifted down and to the right as if it is the shadow mask (to make it look like layers in the display) that is responding. Means you can't move the control palette to the top of the window (to not block security video with time track at bottom) or even close the window. The X in the bubble appears when moused over but the click goes through it.
Most obvious if you open more than one movie at a time and they cascade. You can't get at the ones underneath until a few down the stack and it gets an upper wrong one.
Who's testing these things?
For comparison testing to recreate problem: Mac Pro (System Information has also been dumbed down from System Profiler, push System Report for the useful stuff) with an ATI Radeon HD 5770 driving two displays.
Also viewing desktop of another computer on the network is slower and, for instance in World of Warcraft, the hand pointer flickers.
And finder windows can't be narrowed as much any more to show only a list of file names for drag and drop sorting.
Was hoping that by 10.7.3, it would be safe to jump, since several posts told me how to Terminal > networksetup -setv6off Ethernet to fix iTunes streaming to expresses and other dumb bugs.
