Can I stream live internet TV over ATV

I have a TV programme (Rugby World Cup) that I can only receive over internet. I would like to view this on the big TV. Can I use the ATV 2 to stream this somehow. Or can I have my iMac screen streamed direct to my TV screen using the Apple TV 2 or otherwise? I am hoping to do this in HD if possible.
Thanks for any help!

You cannot stream from the internet on your iMac to an Apple TV.
You can connect your iMac to the TV with a cable and mirror your desktop. Or if the website is video AirPlay enabled you can stream it from an iOS device (ie iPad) using AirPlay.
There are some third party Applications for the iMac that are supposed to stream video from websites to the Apple TV but they are extremely unstable and I'd be reluctant to recommend installing them.

    i have made a few test with Flash Lite 3.0 and Flash Media Server 3  and I have to say that it is pretty easy to stream FLV Video files and  Live Video from local web camera to mobile phone. Here are a quick  instructions how to do it in Windows (I will publish Linux version  later).
    Play FLV-video from Flash Media Server 3:
    Install Flash Media Server 3 (download developer version)
    There are a few sample FLV files in applications/vod/media folder, so you can use one of them for testing
    Create a new Flash Lite 3.0 file in Flash
    Add a new Video symbol to library
    Drag this Video symbol to Stage and give instance name to it: video
    Type following programming to timeline:
    // make a new video-object
    var video:Video;
    // make a new NetConnection-object
    var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
    // check connection status from server
    nc.onStatus = function(info:Object):Void {
      status_txt.text=info.code;
      if (info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success") {
        startStreaming();
    // start streaming video to phone
    function startStreaming() {
      ns = new NetStream(nc);
      ns.setBufferTime(5);
      video.attachVideo(ns);
      // play sample.flv from server
      ns.play("sample",0);
    // show info to user
    status_txt.text = "Connecting server...";
    // connect FMS 3 video on demand service (default port 1935)
    nc.connect("rtmp://your.server.ip.here:1935/vod");
    Go to Publish Settings...
    Set Local playback security: Access network only
    Publish your SWF-file
    Send your SWF-file to your phone
    Test and you should see FLV-video playing in your phone
    Play live video from Flash Media Server 3:
    Install Flash Media Server 3 (download developer version)
    Install Flash Media Encoder 2 (Windows only)
    Start Flash Media Encoder 2
    You should see your live camera in Input screen
    Press Start-button to start sending live video to Flash Media Server 3
    Create a new Flash Lite 3.0 file in Flash
    Add Video symbol and programming as you did earlier
    Modify your programming:
    // in startStreaming()-function
    // Flash Media Encoder 2 publish stream name is "livestream"
    ns.play("livestream",-1,-1,true);
    // start connection to Flash Media Server 3
    // Flash Media Encoder 2 publishes Flash Media Server's default
    // live publishing point, so connect it
    nc.connect("rtmp://your.server.ip.here:1935/live");
    Publish, test and enjoy

  • Can I stream live iPhone App Sports to my TV

    Hi,
    I have a great sports App to watch live games on my iPhone.  I now have a iPhone to TV cable. I can watch saved videos but not the live sports app stream.  Is there an App or setting that makes this possible?

    The app in question must support video out, if it does not, then it is not possible for that app.

  • How can I stream Live video?

    I'm working on a project where I take live video from an NTSC source. I'm looking for a simple program to import and allow me to take screen captures on the fly. I can edit it later. Can iMovie 09 do this...if so how?

    This is an AVCHD camera. On import the AVCHD is converted to AIC. So bottom line is, no streaming from this camera.

  • Streaming MacBooks Internet Connection over WiFi

    Hi together,
    I've got the problem that i won't have an internet connection in my house for quite some time now.
    I own an iPhone and a MacBook Pro. I'm usually using the "personal hotspot" feature to access the internet from the MacBook.
    The problem is now that both my PS3 or other devices can't connect to the internet.
    My idea is to connect the MacBook via Ethernet or WiFi to an Airport Extreme Station in order to share the MacBooks internet connection all over the network and with the PS3.
    Is this somehow possible or can the "tethered" internet of the MacBook not be shared through a network?
    Best Regards,
    Marc

    For the better connectivity please verify that you have got an 802.11n card in your computer. New generation routers (i.e. E1200) speaks an entirely different language than 802.11g cards, so while those adapters can work with the E1200 for example, they are not optimized to work with it. It is like having to translate from one language to another in real time when going from N to G... So in those cases the old router will show a stronger signal than the new one.

  • How can i stream live from my mac

    I am trying to stream a live feed of a game from my mac to a streaming site such as Twitch.com. However all the software i have found for this is only avalible for windows. Are there any mac versions?
    Thank you

    No, but an exhaustive test is probably a bit like proving the non-existence of God
    I'm not sure if EVERYTHING mirrors - I would imagine content providers might still be able to block this somehow, if not it makes blocking Airplay pretty pointless (aspect ratio issues etc aside I suppose).
    Unopened iPad2 bought last week.  Not sure I really want/need it.

  • Can you stream from Amazon Prime using ATV?

    I want to stream video from Amazon using my Prime account. Can that be done using most recent Apple TV?

    Not on AppleTV itself.
    If thyere's any kind of iPhone/iPad app for th eservice you might be able to Airplay it to AppleTV, but AppleTV by itself won't access Amazon stuff.

  • Can you stream live content to apple TV ?

    Hi I aubscribe to an iptv service that I watch on my macbook. My question is can I directly stream to apple TV or would 3rd parts software be required?
    anyhelp appreciated

    not possible.

  • Can I stream music from nano through ATV so it uses my tv as external speakers?

    For when I have people round, rather than clumsy cables everywhere I would want to use a nano (I don't have it yet, so I would be looking at the latest version) as the source for my music, which I could stream to the ATV and play through the TV.
    I currently do this with my iPhone 4S, but is it possible to do this with a nano?

    No, the Nano does not have WiFi.

  • Using Quicktime to stream live internet content?

    I've read the tutorial for both Quicktime 6 and 7 here, and anything else I could find about this, so please forgive me if this is a silly, or redundant question.
    I've been trying to use Quicktime to embed a shoutcast stream for listeners who don't have access to, or aren't technically savy enough to open iTunes and type in a URL (there are a surprising number of these people.)
    After reading several tutoirals, it seemed like the process would be quite simple. Open a new Quicktime player, connect to the playlist, save, and then link to or embed the file into an html document.
    Another method was to embed the stream's IP itself using the same technique, only specify that the plugin is Quicktime.
    These work. However, they don't work very well.
    The stream is fine. Listening within Quicktime itself is fine. Listening with iTunes is fine. However, when listening through a browser the audio is jittery, and seems to skip quite a bit.
    Here's my code:
    [object CLASSID="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab" width="300" height="25" VIEWASTEXT]
    [param name="src" value="http://69.93.28.61:8025/listen.pls"]
    [param name="controller" value="true"]
    [param name="autostart" value="false"]
    [param name="qtsrcchokespeed" value="33600"]
    [/object]
    Has anyone gotten this to work smoothly?
    Would you be willing to share how you did it?

    Funny, I've given the same advice to so many people.
    I thought that a week was enough time to assume no reply would be forthcoming.
    color me mistaken!
    I have actually solved this problem.
    here's what was wrong and how I solved it:
    1. The above code does work, in that it loads a quicktime player, and will play the stream.
    However, the reliability and quality are quite poor.
    2. Disable and intro or outro mp3 file you may have set up to play on your broadcast. At least under shoutcast, this is a source of many errors in terms of establishing a connection with Quicktime, and then suddenly changing the content, bitrate, sample rate and often the content tag.
    3. link to a quicktime file using the QTSRC tag.
    this will tell quicktime that regardless of your ultimate conent (real time live stream which is theoretically not supported) that you want the browser plugin to use quicktime anyway.
    Example Code:
    [OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B"
    CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab"
    WIDTH="300" HEIGHT="25" ]
    [PARAM NAME="src" VALUE="http://shoutcastip:port/listen.pls" ]
    [PARAM NAME="autoplay" VALUE="false" ]
    [EMBED PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/"
    SRC="/quicktimefile_with_your_stream_embedded_init.mov" TYPE="image/x-quicktime"
    WIDTH="300" HEIGHT="25"
    QTSRC="http://shoutcastip:port/listen.pls"
    AUTOPLAY="flase" ]
    [/EMBED]
    [/OBJECT]
    This is currently up and working fairly well.
    Thanks for your reply.

  • Can I stream live world cup games on IPad?

    I know ESPN3 and Univision will be streaming games live. Does anyone know if on the 3g network I will be able to watch them? I do not own an IPad but am highly interested in purchasing one.

    It all depends on the network's data use policy (and data allowance) and the App being available to view live World Cup dross ball, sorry, foot ball.
    Check with the carrier you're thinking of going with too see what they are offering and look around to see what's available in your area.

  • My MacBook Pro can't stream my iTunes library over AirPlay to my AirPort Express.

    The option shows up in iTunes but I can't click on it. I've tried turning AirPlay on and off and turning the router on and off and nothing has worked yet.

    I did set the printer to have a fixed IP address, no luck.
    I had done a disk verification as well, no luck.
    But then I did a disk permission verification and repair, finally it's fixed! - but it took me 2 afternoon just trying to fix this printing problem.
    So I recommend anyone who has the similar problem should do a disk permission verification and repair.
    Thanks for your help anyway Sig.
