HT201317 Stream from windows pc to apple tv?

How do i do this?

Only if the TC is jailbreaked.. otherwise it is dependent on itunes.. and TC  is a dumb hard drive without media server or smarts of any kind.
You can buy a WD live or lots of other media players.. but Apple locked ATV to the itunes environment.. to ensure you pay.

    can I stream from my iPhone to apple tv by bluetooth
    We have a new SONY BRAVIA 32" in our RV how can I stream directly from my Iphone or ipad direct to the TV via Bluetooth?

    No you cannot.  The only Blutooth support for the ATV is keyboards.
    AirPlay requires the ATV and source (iPhone/iPad/computer) be on the same network, wired or wireless.

  • How to stream FROM Windows 8.1 TO Apple TV

    Is is possible to stream audio or, better yet, audiovisual, from my Windows 8.1 PC to my Apple TV WITHOUT using iTunes?  Don't get me wrong, streaming from iTunes works great (at least for audio).  But I wouid like to mirror or at least stream YouTube and other non-iTunes sources from my PC to my Apple TV.
    Home sharing is on and homegroup and Bonjour are both on/enabled.
    What precise steps on my PC must I take to make this work?

    airparrot is an option

  • 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.

  • App for streaming from network drive to Apple TV?

    I'm looking for an app that can do several things. There are apps that I've downloaded and paid for >:-( that do one or even tow of these things, but I want to:
    Stream movies (of different file types) from a network drive (WD MyBookLive) to Apple TV, via an iPad.
    There are apps that will stream any filetype from a Mac to apple TV, but they need certain server software running on the Mac, so no good for me with my network drive.
    There are also apps that will play any filetype on an iPad, streamed from a network drive. But these won't stream to Apple TV.
    Is there something that does both, that doesn't require special software on the drive?
    Thanks!

    That's a shame.
    thanks Rudegar

  • Can I stream from iphone 3g to apple tv

    I Just moved and cannot get cable/internet for another week. Soo... My iphone has internet (duh!) but cannot support a wireless hotspot. I also have at my disposal a MacBook Pro and an airport express. What I would like to do is stream from my iphone to my 3rd gen Apple TV. Can I somehow setup a network for sharing without having the iphone try to use the wifi for internet. Or could it be possible to connect the MacBook Pro to the Apple TV via a wifi network then stream the phone to the MacBook Pro via Bluetooth?

    You can't use the cellular connection to stream data from the web and then share it using a wifi hotspot on your phone to use AirPlay if that is what you are after.
    You can however set up a proper wifi network using a router if you want without having an outside connection and use it to Airplay content on your phone you downloaded from your cellular network.

  • How can I stream from iTunes (Win) to Apple TV (3. generation)?

    Home Sharing is turned on, but I can't see my iTunes library on my Apple TV, also I've no idea, how to stream from my MacBook or PC to the Apple TV. Firewall is offline during testing. Streaming photos and from iOS-devices works.

    What happens you you try?  Are you looking under Music or Computers > Music.  Have you entered in the home sharing ID you created in to ATV?

  • Slow Streaming From Time Capsule to Apple TV

    Hi,
    I have several movies and tv programmes stored on my Time Capsule..... When I stream from the time capsule to Apple TV it is very slow and is constantly buffering. How can I get around this as at present the films / programmes are un-watchable.
    Thanks
    mbchunky

    Thanks for describing your current network configuration for streaming.
    In your current setup, QuickTime will first have to access the media files from the TC over a wireless connection. From there it will send the stream back to the TC. The TC will then send the stream to the Apple TV. As you can see there are a number of potential Wi-Fi interference issues along this overall path. Interference is not just from other Wi-Fi operating nearby, but also includes microwave ovens, portable phones, baby monitors, etc. Very importantly, it also includes the type of building material used along the path the wireless signal must travel through.
    I would suggest that you do a bit of testing to determine what exactly the data throughput you are getting. Once you understand those values, we should be able to determine where the bottlenecks are and try to eliminate them if possible.
    Please take a look at the following AirPort User Tip for details on taking throughput measurements.

  • Very Slow Streaming from MacBook Pro to Apple TV

    I am trying to stream movie from my MacBook to my Apple TV but the movies do not stream. My library shows up on my Apple TV and when I select them they do not load. After a few minutes a message will show up saying, "An error occurred loading this content, Try again later." I have had my Apple TV for about 5 months and have not had any problems streaming content before except when I had to do some port forwarding through my router but about a week ago it started with this issue. I have a PC hooked up to my network and am able to stream from that without any problems. My MacBook is running OSX 10.8.2 with iTunes 11.0.1, my Apple TV is running 5.1.1. Please help with any suggestions you might have.

  • Streaming from Time Capsule to Apple TV

    I'm considering to purchase the Time Capsule. My purpose is to have a wireless HD with my complete iTunes Library on it and tstreming music and video to ATV.
    Does anyone have exprerience with this set up?

    I am assuming that you currently have the existing model of the Apple TV and not the latest just announced by Apple ... correct?
    If so, you are already aware that the Apple TV can either "duplicate" your iTunes Library or can accept streams from an iTunes host. If your goal is to use the new Time Capsule (TC) as the location of the iTunes Library, this should work, but bandwidth performance will be critical, especially for streaming HD video.
    To stream, you will need to take into consideration the path that the stream will be required to take to get to the Apple TV. For HD video, you will want this path to be Gigabit Ethernet wherever possible ... so ideally (but not necessarily practically) that would mean that the iTunes host and the Apple TV would need to be connected to the TC by Ethernet. That is because, the iTunes host must first contact the TC to access its iTunes Library. The TC will stream the data to the iTunes host and, in turn, the host will stream it back to the TC, and finally, the TC will stream it to the Apple TV. The path taken, of course, will change depending on the connection types (wired or wireless) ... and if you have configured the Apple TV as an iTunes speaker.

  • Video streamed from YouTube using the Apple Composite AV Cable

    I used to have video streamed from YouTube on my iPad to my TV using the Apple Composite AV Cable, this was in previous versions till the iOS 6 release, then YouTube no longer streams video through this cable :'(
    Very annoying really to miss a feature through a software upgrade!
    Please help me.

    Looks like the connector that goes into the iPad doesn't precisely connect all pins and lock the whole thing in place as well as we would think an Apple-branded product would. I discovered after four hours that if I pull my AV composite cable from the iPad without turning the iPad off (not the Apple recommended way - perhaps there's a better way, like replugging with it off?) and plugging it back in, *poof* I get video again. Now, Netflix still isn't working, but U-Tubes and photo slideshows are back with awesome-quality sound. I believe I'll get similar results when I try this on my iPhone 4.
    I guess Apple TV is really the only way to get the luxury back of being able to stay focused on your entertainment and not this equipment because this was spozed to be a movie nite for me four hous ago. I just wish Apple TV had as much content as the Roku.
    Anyway, just plug and re-plug, but don't be too hard on it. You might also have to turn widescreen off and back on again.
