Shuffle play videos on TV

I have everything set up and my ipod plays videos on the TV. With the remote, if you click the skip button the videos just turn off, and I have to go select another video manually from the ipod. I would prefer to have a shuffle play for my music videos instead of manually changing videos each time.
Does anyone know of a way to shuffle play videos?

I'm not sure but what happens if you put your music videos in a playlist? I wonder if they'll shuffle then?

    Unfortunately not.

  • Playing Videos Continuously--Shuffle Mode

    I bought about 40 videos thru iTunes over the past few months. I am trying to figure out how to play the videos one after another with out having to manually play the next video--similar to building a play list of music files and having songs play one after another. When I try to play videos in a play list using the shuffle feature, i get an error message that reads "apple tv cannot play the file selected." When I called apple support to figure out why this was happening they told me that apple tv cannot play videos in succession they way I want to. Is this true? Is there a way around this? It seems like a fairly simple feature to implement. Having to select the next video everytime is silly.

    Yes I'm afraid this is true
    Is there a way around this?
    Sorry, none whatsoever

    There are many that agree with you and have it at the top of their lists for feature requests, I'm not sure whether it's an oversight in the current version of tv software or whether it's built in protection against the possibility of having the tv play video 24/7.

  • Suggestion: Play All and Shuffle for Video

    I'd really like to make a suggestion for Play All, and Shuffle Play All for videos in TV. I really miss that about my EyeHome I could set it to play a TV show continuously while I work on other things, one time I had two seasons of a show play shuffled and continuously for 12 hours while I was working.
    Also more sub menus. So I can have a TV show name, click to then show All the seasons of that show. Click a season to show all the shows in that season. But at the top of each menu to Play All, and Shuffle Play All. Sometimes I like to randomly play all of a certain show.
    Also sub menus for movies. So Lord of the Rings will be listed, clicking it takes me to All three movies. At the top I can start to play them all in Order.

    Might try posting in the appropriate forum -> Forum: Front Row

  • Is there a way to shuffle music videos on the Touch?

    The Touch is my first video iPod, and I was shocked to see I can't shuffle my videos. I just bought a slew of music videos, and I would like to be able to organize them into playlists and shuffle those, just like my songs. Right now I can only play one video at a time, then I have to manually go back and select another video.
    Am I missing something? Or will this functionality be added in a future software update? Playing videos just isn't very convenient or enjoyable at all with the current lack of shuffle capability. Anyone else feel the same, or am I all alone on this?

    Have done the feedback thing, and hopefully others have as well. Any idea if this functionality of being able to organize playlists of your music videos and play them as such is going to be be possible in any upcoming software upgrade?
    I have actually gone ahead and got the universal dock and component cables, so I can view my music videos on my big screen TV and sound through my stereo and speakers. Sure would be nice to be able to allow a playlist of videos to continually play nonstop without having to go to the Touch after the conclsusion of each single video and select the next one to play.

  • Playing videos on Music app.

    Since I downloaded upgrade, I cannot see music videos on Music app.  I can see them one by one on the Video app, but when I create a playlist in order to shuffle the videos (for when I run), they cannot be seen.  I can see them on iTunes and Video app, but not on playlist.  I can see them when I click add and done, they come up as if I were deleting them with the red circle next to them.  When I click done again (not selecting to delete), the list goes blank and I cannot select them.  I might sell my iPod and switch to another player if this is not fixed.

    I agree with you G-Daddy. I just bought Alpocolypse and it has several music videos at the end. On my iPhone it will play all of the songs and then play the music videos. Not so on the iPad.
    Someone will probably make an App for that, if Apple lets it through.

  • Itunes/quicktime crashes when trying to play video podcasts and 3GP files

    Hello all,
    I've searched these forums and didn't see anything that might help me, so if know of any solutions posted already, please let me know. I have an HP laptop(AMD Turion 64 X2 2.0 GB processor, 2 GB or RAM) running Windows Vista Home Premium. I used to be able to play 3GP files at one time with Quicktime, but now I cannot. Then, the other day I tried to play a video podcast and it starts to play, then says, "Itunes has stopped working". Quicktime does the same thing with 3GP files. This was before my update to Itunes 8.0. It happpened with Itunes 7.5.11.1 or whatever the last version was. It obviously does the same thing with Itunes 8. I've tried completely uninstalling Itunes and quicktime, then reinstalling them both and I still have the same problem. Just a note: I tried playing the video podcast via Windows Media Playey, and it worked fine, except for no audio(I don't think WMP has AAC support) so I think something is conflicting between Itunes and my computer. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

    Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
    From the notes for the release:
    iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
    • Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
    • Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
    • Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
    • Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

  • Shuffle music videos?

    Is there no function that makes it possible to shuffle the music videos purchased? Its annoying to press play everytime a video is finished, it would be nice to be able to shuffle the videos like the songs....

    No, and it's a very frustrating omission.

  • Shuffle music videos using front row

    Hello, I just can´t figure it out, can I shuffle music videos using front row?
    MAc mini   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I don't think anyone's figured out how to do that. Music and music playlists from iTunes are played through iTunes. However, even if your video is inside iTunes the video is played through Front Row using the QuickTime Player application, not iTunes. Since the QuickTime Player application is not reading playlists from iTunes and has no "shuffle" option of its own, I don't think it can be done. If you do make a playlist in iTunes that has videos on it, all you get is the audio and a black screen when they're played with iTunes.
    I would suggest you send Apple some Mac OS X feedback and let them know you'd like to see an option like this.

  • Shuffle music videos in Apple TV 2??

    Does enyone know if apple tv 2 has the option to shuffle music videos played form the iPad 2?
    I've red some discussions from 2008 where they said that apple tv was able to shuffle videos by holding the play/pause button, but I'm trying to do it and it doesn't work.
    Any information would be highly appreciated!!!
    Thanks!

    Been asking for this feature since I picked one up. Just keep using the feedback form... maybe they'll listen...

  • ITunes 10.6 crashes when trying to play video full screen

    I haven't seen this particular issue among others' comments so…
    When switching from the normal video window to full screen while watching a podcast in my iTunes library, the program immediately crashes.  I've tried several different podcast, starting with the smaller video window, then trying to expand using the opposing diagonal arrows symbol in the bottom right corner.  The result has been the same.  As soon as I click on that the window screen goes black, and iTunes shuts down.
    I'm on a MacBook Pro 4,1 using OS 10.6.8 and iTunes 10.6 (40).
    Meanwhile, hope someone is working on the problem with the clickable scroll bars being inoperable.

  • ITunes still won't play videos or TV downloads

    I'm using a Mac and the help articles I've seen are for Windows. I have tried everything suggested in previous posts and done the help given by the Apple tech (download latest Quicktime, etc.) and the movies, TV shows and music videos still don't work. Gray screen with no sound or video, but the progress bar at the top moves. iTunes won't shuffle songs anymore either, and with the last update all my custom saved equalizer settings disappeared. Does anyone have any additional help? [I'm using iTunes 7.6.2, Quicktime 7.5]
    Thanks,
    Mike

    If this ever happens to you check to see if you or a friend has added a few video viewing programs to your hard drive. My son-in-law copied some programs from his laptop to my iMac in order to be able to view most any type video format that I might encounter. Turns out that some of them were causing the interference that kept iTunes from playing videos, movies or TV shows.

  • Unable to shuffle Music Video added to Playlist in iTunes

    I am unable to shuffle music videos added to iTunes Playlist. I want to listen songs present in playlist with a random selection instead of a sequential playback. Also when I activate the shuffle button while playing videos the playback stops after completion of the current track.
    So please suggest a way out.
    Thanks

    If the iPad works the same way as the iPhone, I found a workaround, created a playlist in my music (instead of videos), added my videos to this playlist then play everything off the 'Music' app rather than the 'Videos' on my iPhone. Works perfectly for me, can shuffle, loop...

  • When trying to play videos I get the message "requested URL is not supported on this network" how do I fix this?

    I receive the error "requested URL is not supported on this network" when trying to play videos on my iPhone. Can you please advise how to fix this problem?

    Hi,
    You will need to re-instal iCal as an optional install from your OSX installer DVDs. Then run the Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update.
    Best wishes

  • After updating to windows 8.1 iTunes will not play video

    I recently updated to Windows 8.1 but since i have my iTunes will not play video i previously downloaded from the iTunes store. The video will play in QuickTime without issue though, please help

    sorry it's not my apple id. it's my icloud email/account. after i updated to ios 8.1.2 my icloud acct on my phone is wrong. it's using my old college email address instead of my current icloud account email. my old college email address *used* to be my apple id, but i changed my apple id to my gmail account a few months back. anyway i can't "sign out" or delete the icloud account bc it thinks my college email address is my icloud account and it  keeps asking for the password. so i'll type in the current password for my icloud account and it says it's wrong and i need to retry or change the password, which i've already done twice and nothing changes. probably bc its asking for the password associated with the college email address it thinks is my icloud acct.
    i can access icloud on my desktop without a problem...   make any sense?  do i have to restore my phone now or is there a solution?  i've wasted the last 2 days trying to figure this out. i can't send or receive emails on my iphone bc of this. which really ***** for work.
