Netflix/Apple TV should have a "resume play" option...let's make it happen!

Netflix's Roku Box is cheaper and has a "resume playback" button which holds your place when you watch a movie and want to revisit at a later time. With apple tv, you have to start allllll the way from the beginning and fast forward to where you left off (if you even remember where you left off). I am beginning to regret buying apple tv and think the apple team should update the software to include a resume play option so that it holds your place where you left off.
If anyone else agrees, let's tell the feedback peeps we want it added, otherwise why not just buy a cheaper roku box??!!!

Netflix on Apple TV definitively has resume playback option. Actually the same "resume playing / start from beginning" than the renting from iTunes store on the Apple TV. Don't know why you haven't seen it.

No resume play function in Netflix and other issues

1. No "resume play" function in Netflix?
2. Music playlists in alpha order only
3. Netflix hangs on loading when trying to play second video in a row; have to go out completely
4. Long list of music playlists takes 2-3 minutes to load; sometimes list flashes then disappears; when backtracking from song, complete list of playlists will not appear; keeps reverting to song selection
5. Am able to play Netflix movie at 720p, unlike with my PS3

No Picture on 'Resume Play' Option When Home Sharing on ATV Gen 3

Everything seems to work fine when you 'Start from Beginning' when home sharing, but as soon as I go to fast forward or 'Resume Play' if I have watched a little bit on my MBP, the screen freezes or is black. There is sound and there will be no skipping of the sound; also, the movie loads fine, but there is no picture unless I restart from the beginning. I can also fast forward on Netflix and Hulu Plus just fine with no picture/sound issues so I know that it isn't my internet connection. I am on Version 5.3 (6105) with a wired connection to my router.

From iTunes Menu Advanced select -> Turn Off Homesharing
Repeat that an every computer
The Turn On Homesharing again - Use the same ID/PW that you use / have used for purchasing songs on every computer

TS5150 With certain movies I have downloaded digitally through Itunes or certain movies through Netflix played through Apple TV, I am only getting partial sound. I am missing one or more sound tracks. Am I missing something in the settings for Apple TV?

Are you using a stereo receiver or surround sound system for the audio by chance. What you are describing sounds like a receiver that is not setup correctly, or does not have the speakers connected to it correctly to support Dolby surround, 5.1 or 7.1. Which is why it is only happening on some content. It would only be on the ones that are encoded to support Dolby audio.

Front Row: missing resume option

There's a serious issue with front Row... whoever decided what to put in the new Front Row forgot to add a "resume video" option. So now you have to start the movie from the beginning and go all the way forward (there used to be an option in Tiger to resume or play from the beginning)

Ok, I think I've got a handle on what's happening. It gets a little circular, especially the inconsitancies between iTunes movie playback and front row movie playback.
Here is my situation:
All of my Movies in iTunes are QT reference movies. They are all saved with the playhead at the poster frame, ie. some random time in the film. This was so that in the old front row the preview would start at the poster frame, not at the beginning of the film where the production company stuff is. In iTunes under options, all Movies have "Remember playback position" checked. The start times and end times are 0 and the end of the film respectively. Though, checking the boxes next to the start times and end times seems to have no effect and isn't saved when you close the window. Maybe i don't understand the functionality of those two settings. Anyway.
It appears that Front Row will still remember your playback position, but only if you are more that 5 seconds into the film. If you stop a movie earlier than 5 seconds in, front row sets the resume playback position to the position of the playhead in the saved QT file (not the beginning for me). It does not however set the bit to prompt the user to resume the next time the movie is played in front row. So stop before 5 sec, hit play again, playback jumps immediately to the poster frame, no prompt. I know that the position is saved upon stopping the movie because if i stop before 5 seconds and then quit front row and play the same movie in iTunes, playback begins at the poster frame. If i let it go for more than 5 sec in front row, playback in iTunes resumes at that point. This is all repeatable.
Going the other way -- resuming movies that were last played in iTunes in front row. This works, but is also buggy.
This is all a result of separating front row from iTunes. Something in my opinion apple never should have done. It is the root of most of the new problems with front row. In tiger i spent the time orgainizing my TV shows exactly the way iTunes and front row wanted them, name, season number, episode number. New front row says "f" that, how about reverse chronological for everything?!?! You may not be able to find the next episode of a show you wanna watch, but you get to that realization in less than three clicks! Apple: sacrificing mantra for usability. Honestly though, I don't think they really put that much thought into it. This is a secondary app that not many people use on an OS that was way behind and needed to hit an already extended launch date. They probably just dragged it over from apple TV, saw that it started and said thats that.
good luck

The play option is not available on some iTunes extra titles on Apple TV

With the latest update iTunes extra has been added to Apple TV, which is pretty cool. BUT some titles do not have the "play" option once you are in the iTunes extra menu. All the features are there, but the play option is not. This is particularly happening with the movie Planes. Other Disney titles, and non-disney titles, seem to irk fine. It works from my MacBook Pro. I have logged out and back into iTunes on my ATV with no change. Any ideas?

It sounds like lack of testing with these titles in all honesty.
I guess you could also alert itunes Store support to this. Hoepfully it's just the odd title here and there, and something that can be quickly fixed, but kids won't understand that!
I'm dissapointed that the old Extras I have downloaded in iTunes won't work as they would with AppleTV 1 when streamed from iTunes.
Uncertain if you can download Extras to iTunes anymore either if they are cloud dependent and in some new format perhaps. Yet to try but I don't think they'd work via Home Sharing.

How do I get netflix on my apple tv....I do not see the option on my apple tv menus

How do I get netflix on my apple tv....I do not see the option on my apple tv menus

Netflix is only available for Apple TV2 not the first version. It is under the Internet tab and you must sign in with your username and password. You need a Netflix Account to use this service. I have a Netflix account so it shows up on my Apple TV2.

Movies which are played with itunes are missing 2nd line of subtitles therefore apple tv 2 misses these also. How so?

Movies converted from MKV via Handbrake which are played with itunes are missing 2nd line of subtitles therefore apple tv 2 misses these also. Funny is that Quicktime and Ipad 2 handles subtitles correctly on the same moviefile.
(please note that the subtitles are not burned into movie)
What can be the problem?
Has anyone suggestions?
Thanks in advance

i am experiencing this issue as well...
any tips or resolution would be greatly appreciated...
thanking you kindly...

Scrabble App on AUS iTunes store missing Facebook Social Play option...

Anyone have any ideas why the Scrabble App on AUS iTunes store is missing the Facebook Social Play option that the US iTunes store version of the Scrabble App has? And is there any word on if or when this might be addressed??

You'd have to ask the App Developer. No one here would know why a feature is in one version but not a different version.

VOD resume play useless

The issue I'm having is with video on demands "resume play". When we stop a program part of the way through, and try to attempt to go back and watch the rest of it, it starts it over from the beginning most of the time. Every once in a while it will remember where we last stopped watching and resumes play correctly, but most of the time it does not. This is very annoying when we're watching a VOD show on a program that does not allow fast forwarding because we are forced to either start over and rewatch the whole show or just not waste our time with it any longer. Please fix this issue as it has become a major annoyance with our service with Verizon..

I have always disliked the term "VOD" because it really isn't. It is more like "what is on the menu". Just like a restaurant, you only get to choose what is on the menu, not anything at anytime. For a truer VOD experience, and one that is technically more reliable than the poor implementation of VZ, I have begun to use my laptop to stream to my TV, and I have purchased a ROKU device as well. Both provide a very satisfying experience with surprisingly good picture quality, even for standard definition fare. High definition is available depending on content and the provider. I have not yet gotten a subscription to Netflix or Hulu Plus, but they have a lot of HD material. There is a lot to choose from many providers that is free, and the ROKU people are partnering with both free and subscription providers. As an Amazon Prime member, I also get a lot of free movies and TV shows from that source. This is a whole new adventure in entertainment options, with lots of choices and a level of satisfaction not provided by VZ. I am not affiliated with Amazon or ROKU other than as a client.

How can I play music on the apple tv from itunes?

Hi! two months ago I was able to play music on the apple tv, but today I can not. Some one knows why?
I can not find the option to share to the apple tv.

Hi,
When I say that I'm not able to play music in the Apple TV is because I can not more find the option in ITunes, I remember that two months ago I was able to share the music and hear it in the TV but maybe I forgot the way to do that or may be change it, I don't know. If I remember, I just made click for example in a song and there was the option to share to Apple TV but jet is no more the option.
I don't have a MAC, my computer is VAIO and didn't change it.
I already set the Home sharing on ITunes and Apple TV.

I can no longer play iTunes rentals on Apple TV

I just rented a movie from iTunes, and when I try to play it via my Apple TV via AirPlay mirroring all I get is a checkerboard pattern. If I play on my laptop it works, but AirPlay fails with the checkerboard pattern.
I rented from the movie in iTunes, using my brand new Retina MacBook Pro onto my Apple TV. All in the Apple ecosystem. And it doesn't work. This arrangement worked in the past. I'm not sure what software "upgrade" broke this.
This is extremely irritating (and I don't look forward to being on hold for hours tomorrow when I try to get a refund). My entire family was gathered, with guests to watch the rental. We had to resort to Netflix. Which may be the permanent solution...
What's going on?

I'm having this issue too. I can still rent movies from the top movies list or the the other viewers watched part, but I just can't search for them or bring up the in depth menus. Very annoying. Is this to do with the new apple tv release? Is the store being updated. Don't know about you guys but I'm in Australia having this problem.

IPod no longer resumes play where last paused

After the 3.0 update, I've noticed that after pausing the iPod and then using the phone for other things, it will no longer resume play where I last paused. For example, I shuffle almost 100% of the time I play music. If I pause the music to surf the internet or otherwise do other things on the iPhone, when I go back to play music, it is no longer paused on the last song it was playing ("Now Playing" should be displayed on upper right corner), but now starts a new shuffle; i.e., no previous songs played.
Has anybody else noticed this?

Hi!
I can confirm, that the playback problem, where iPod starts at the beginning of the first song on your iPhone, still exists with OS3.1. I have written my second feedback to Apple regarding this issue, one for 3.0 and one for 3.1.
I do have playlists in use, but I dont believe, that they have something to do with this issue.
If you also have the same problem, please leave a feedbac on http://www.apple.com/feedback.
Thanks, bye
Michael
