Question about minimum speeds required for watching movies.

I watch Netflix on my home computer fine (and Hulu) and will occasionally share the screen with my HDTV and it works fine.
With AppleTV, can I expect to be able to rent/watch movies with basic DSL Internet, with speeds up to 1.5 Mbps?
Or do I really need to have faster Internet to consider it?
Thanks!

I would upgrade. You need at least 3mbps for SD content and 5mbps for HD
Netflix degrades quality based on the connection and you will have a long wait if renting through iTunes.

    What is minimum Internet bandwidth is required for watching movie online on Mac Mini

    Greetings Rahuldel,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are looking for information for minimum bandwidth for streaming speeds while watching a movie from iTunes. The attached article give approximate times for downloading a movie from iTunes based on internet speeds. I would recommend downloading the movie before watching it on your Mac mini so there will be no buffering or interruptions. 
    iTunes Store: Download times will vary - Apple Support

  • Question about using DVD covers for the movies I import

    Question for all you mac genii - When I import a dvd that I own into my itunes library and sync to my  tv, how can I get the DVD cover art to appear so it looks like the stuff I have purchased from the itunes library? It there a way to edit the cover art for movies? Thanks in advance...

    You add it just like you would for music - the catch is that if you are doing syncing, you need to re-sync the whole file (so the embedded artwork will transfer). Add the artwork, un-check the movie/tv show to be synced, do a sync (it should be removed from the ATV), and then check it to synced again and do a sync (it should push it back out to the ATV again).
    Kind of a pain - so it is best to tag your files (MetaX is awesome) before you do any syncing of files.

  • What is the minimum download speed required for iTunes Match streaming

    I have been very interested by iTunes Match, and I have read much about it.  The only thing that I have not been able to find is the minimum bandwidth required to stream music to an iPhone.  Specifically, I would be looking to stream to an iPhone 5, as well as an iPhone 4.  If there is an official minimum requirement, please let me know.  If there is no apple specified speed, I would be interested in what you found to be he minimum speed necessary for smooth streaming.
    Thanks,

    iPhone 4 and 5 will both work well with a good 3G service and much better with 4G.  Song file is actually downloaded to allow for all conditions of viable mobile signal.

  • What's the minimum Clock Speed Requirement for GB3?

    What's the minimum Clock Speed Requirement for GB3 (assuming one wishes to create and play mult. audio tracks within this current iLife app)? Is it 733mhz?
    Here's what i was able to find on
    iLife ’06 requirements:
    To install iLife, you need:
    • A Macintosh computer with a PowerPC G4, G5, or Intel Core processor; 733 MHZ or faster required for iDVD
    • 256 MB of RAM; 512 MB recommended
    • Mac OS X version 10.3.9 or Mac OS X version 10.4.3 or later; Mac OS X version 10.4.4 recommended
    • iTunes 6.0.2 and QuickTime 7.0.4 (included)
    • A DVD drive for installation
    • 10 GB of disk space to install iLife '06 applications

    Thanks Christoph, TIA, and AppleGuy!
    Christoph, what model are you using? You said you have even less Mhz, but your model looks like the same as mine.
    TIA, I looked at the other thread (thanks for the link) any idea what other models are affected by the sound output problem?
    I probably will back up first just to be safe, and won't try running them both at the same time. I was hoping though to have full functionality of the Podcasting features plus all the old music ones without slowing the machine down.

  • Minimum steps required for Change Management and Incident management

    Hello experts,
    Does anyone have a check list of the absolute minimum steps required for getting Change Management and Incident management functioning in Solution Manager.
    I just need it to function with creating changes and incidents and be able to assign them, change their status and close them.
    The purpose is to get an idea if this is something for us to use. If we then find it useable, then we will go for a full scale implementation using official guides, education etc.
    I just need an absolute minimum guide for demonstrating the functions, and if you guys have any recommendations, things we should pay special attention to or other experiences feel free to tell me.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Interesting spec on speed requirements for Leopard

    On the readme on the DVD, it clearly says "..G4 (867MHz min) or G5."
    I am not sure that these are the exact words, but I am sure about those parentheses, which would indicate that the speed requirement only applies to the G4s.
    Now, it may be a typo or a mistake, but it certainly indicates that there is no speed requirement for a G5. It could also be that all G5s are over the minimum, so it's moot - this I don't know.
    Anyway, I thought it was interesting.
    The instruction manualette is also interesting in that it has almost nothing about the install in it, basically saying stick it in and click. It probably is that easy for most, but I would at least have included some of the install options and what and how the install process works.
    I also wonder how many who have had install problems clicked "Skip" on the initial DVD selfcheck?

    These manuals didn't come with Leopard? http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/leopard/
    Have a nice day!

  • What is Minimum database requirement for EBS R12

    What is Minimum database requirement for EBS R12? for example if it works only with enterprise edition or with standard edition also.
    Regards,
    Sandeep V

    Question is very interesting and very important. The link does not answer if "standard edition" can be used. Obviously, Rapid Install installs EE database. But we can move the database to another dedicated database server.
    And the question becomes "Can we move it to a Standard Edition database server"? Huge ramifications on costs. Extremely important. Nowhere I could find positive answer. I wonder if anyone had found an answer?AFAIK, it is not supported.
    My own research shows that VIS database (built at home) has partitioned tables in APPLSYS and APPS schemas. Partitioning is not supported in Standard Edition.Correct.
    I wonder if we can migrate the database and manually move several partitioned tables into non-partitioned Standard Edition. Will EBS R12 break? Will Oracle Support cancel its support?Oracle will not support this -- Please log a SR to confirm this with Oracle Support.
    Thanks,

  • What are the minimum system requirements for GB 4?

    What are the minimum system requirements for GB 4? I did search this forum but wasn't able to find a direct answer.
    I'm running version 3.0.4 successfully on a lowly G4 733 but I suspect this is as far as I can go.
    I'm updating to iDvd'08 and was also wondering if I can safely update to GB4 or not (from GB 3.0.7) on a G4 733 mhz Digital Audio. Any help would be sincerely appreciated. My guess is that I cannot but I'd like to confirm prior to attempting any further updates in GB.

    I try my best to play it safely; always. And you were right, everything worked on the ext. FW HD flawlessly ...... truly amazing software!
    (I did happen to check the activity Monitor w/in Utilities and it showed GB4 using about 60-67% of the CPU on a G4 733 ..... I'm assuming this is normal).
    Click Here
    Not sure if there's a correct order to opening these apps as there has been in former versions of iLife ..... however, this (as shown above) is the order in which I opened all apps, and all worked well.

  • OS does not meet the minimum system requirements for this installer. 10.6.0 is the minimum required

    How do I get my software? This is the message I am hitting before my download will complete:
    OS does not meet the minimum system requirements for this installer.
    10.6.0 is the minimum required for installation.

    Hi,
    May I know what are you trying to download ?
    What is the MAC OS version you are using ?
    It seems you are trying to download an application which needs atleast 10.6 MAC version
    I think you are using lower version of MAC, let us know the version of your MAC , in order to help better .
    To check the version  : click on Apple Button on top left
    select about this MAC, you will get to know the version over there.
    If its something 10.5.x , then you need to upgrade your MAC in order to install that application which needs 10.6 MAC

  • Minimum Hardware Requirements for MDM 5.5 SP2

    What is the minimum hardware requirements for MDM 5.5 SP2?  For what I am doing, I expect to have 25-50K records stored in it.

    The question is clear but answers may vary from one repository to another. How many fields your main record will  have, how big lookup tables will be, how complex your taxonomy with attributes will be, and so on. But! The good news is you may try it even on your laptop. I got an impression it's for your own playing and experiments but not production yet. If you computer allows to run MSSQL and it has other I'd say 50-100Mb of memory free it may be enough. But again, it really varies.
    For production-oriented precise estimations you can read an official sizing doc at SMP - quick link /instguidesnw04
    The rule of thumb - the faster/bigger computer the better:-)

  • Minimum system requirements for installing Oracle Application Testing Suite

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me what are the minimum system requirements for intalling Oracle Application Testing Suite?
    Thanks in Advance

    From the release notes (12.1.0.2).
    System Requirements
    Oracle Application Testing Suite has the following system requirements:
    4
    3.1 Oracle Functional Testing/OpenScript
    Oracle Functional Testing’s OpenScript scripting platform has the following system
    requirements:
    ■ Operating System (32-bit and 64-bit versions): Windows XP, Windows Vista,
    Windows 2003, Windows 7, Windows 2008
    ■ Memory: Minimum 1 GB
    ■ System: x86, 32-bit or 64-bit processor, 2.6 GHz or faster
    ■ Disk Space: 4 GB minimum
    ■ Browser: Internet Explorer 7.x, 8.x., 9.x and Firefox 3.5/3.6, 6.x
    3.2 Oracle Load Testing
    Oracle Load Testing has the following system requirements:
    ■ Operating System (32-bit and 64-bit versions): Windows XP, Windows Vista,
    Windows 2003, Windows 7, Windows 2008, Windows 2008 R2. Oracle Enterprise
    Linux 5.1, 5.2 64, 4u8.
    ■ Memory: Minimum 2 GB.
    ■ System: x86, 32-bit or 64-bit processor, 2.6 GHz or faster
    ■ Disk Space: 10 GB minimum free (at least 3 GB free on the system drive)
    ■ Browser: Internet Explorer 7.x, 8.x, 9.x, Firefox 3.5/3.6, 6.x
    ■ Database: Oracle EE 10g or 11g, XE 10g
    ■ Application Server: Oracle WebLogic 11g (10.3.5.0). Oracle Application Testing
    Suite requires the standard WebLogic Server installation (which includes jrocket
    jdk.). It does not support generic versions of WebLogic Server installation (such as
    those that use wls1035_generic.jar).
    ■ Oracle Load Testing Agent also supported on Linux 32-bit & 64-bit, in addition to
    Windows 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems listed above
    Note: These are minimum requirements only and actual
    requirements for the Oracle Load Testing Server will vary depending
    on the size and configuration of your load test. If you are running
    larger load tests, of greater than 1000 Virtual Users, you should
    consider deploying Oracle Load Testing on a faster server class
    machine with additional RAM recommended.
    Note: Oracle recommends running the Oracle Load Testing Server
    and Agents on separate systems for production load testing. The
    amount of memory required on the Oracle Load Testing Agent
    systems may increase based on the number of Virtual Users that will
    be assigned to run on each Agent. For more information, visit the
    QA/Testing Technology Center on Oracle Technology Network or
    contact your Oracle representative.

    3.3 Oracle Test Manager
    Oracle Test Manager has the following system requirements:
    ■ Operating System (32-bit and 64-bit versions): Windows XP, Windows Vista,
    Windows 2003, Windows 7, Windows 2008, Windows 2008 R2. Oracle Enterprise
    Linux 5.1, 5.2, 4u8.
    ■ Memory: Minimum 2 GB.
    ■ System: x86, 32-bit or 64-bit processor, 2.6 GHz or faster
    ■ Disk Space: 10 GB minimum free (at least 3 GB free on the system drive)
    ■ Browser: Internet Explorer 7.x, 8.x, 9.x, Firefox 3.5/3.6, 6.x
    ■ Database: Oracle EE 10g or 11g, XE 10g
    ■ Application Server: Oracle WebLogic 11g (10.3.5.0). Oracle Application Testing
    Suite requires the standard WebLogic Server installation (which includes jrocket
    jdk.). It does not support generic versions of WebLogic Server installation (such as
    those that use wls1035_generic.jar).
    3.4 Additional Notes
    The following are additional notes about system requirements:
    ■ The ATS installer can automatically install and configure an Oracle 10g Express
    Edition (XE) database for use with Oracle Load Testing and Oracle Test Manager.
    Although this is useful for demos, for production usage switching to Oracle's 11g
    Enterprise Edition database is highly recommended. Oracle 11g Standard Edition
    and Oracle 10g EE or SE are also supported.
    ■ System memory requirements do not take into account other processes that may
    be running and using memory on your system, reducing free uncommitted
    memory available.
    ■ When installed on the same machine, Oracle Load Testing and Oracle Test
    Manager will run on the same server and use shared system resources. Oracle
    Functional Test/OpenScript is a separate application that have its own memory
    and CPU requirements.
    ■ The ATS products will run in 32-bit compatibility mode when installed on 64-bit
    operating systems. It is possible for Oracle Application Testing Suite to be installed
    on an existing WebLogic server. However, if the pre-installed WebLogic server is
    JRockit plus WebLogic (64-bit) environment, some functions in Oracle Application
    Testing Suite will not work properly. Oracle Application Testing Suite can be
    installed on a 32-bit WebLogic, but not a 64-bit.
    ■ The legacy Oracle Functional Testing, VB-based scripting platform and associated
    components (such as Job Scheduler) are no longer included with the ATS installer
    Note: These are minimum requirements only and actual
    requirements for Oracle Test Manager will vary depending on the
    quantity of test assets stored and number of concurrent users
    accessing the application. If you have a large quantity of test cases,
    requirements or issues stored and/or are deploying Oracle Test
    Manager for a team greater than 10 users, you should consider
    deploying Oracle Test Manager on a faster server class machine with
    additional RAM recommended.

  • Question about lead in music for podcasting.

    Question about lead in music for podcasting.
    I listen to many other podcasts and there are those which play lead in music with bit of music inside their podcast. The music are songs we all know and enjoy. I have notice that they only play short small clips of these songs and are not royalty free songs.
    My Question would be is there a limit of time which you can play any song with out paying for it and use it in a podcast legally.
    Thanks Mike

    Legally you cannot use copyright music without written permission or a licence from a recognized authority, no matter how short the clip. Many people do this and get away with it (and for full tracks too) and it's debatable how much notice anyone is likely to take, or whether they would be bothered about a short clip. But the legal position is, it's not legal.
