Streaming Problems (4od, iPlayer etc...)

Lately i've been having streaming issues with certain services such as 4od and iPlayer, youtube isn't effected. does anyone know what can be causing this? My speed test result is around 27Mb with 7Mb upload speed.
It happens on both wired or wireless, i've tried rebooting the modem with no luck. It never used to be an issue some time ago. 

I get the same on 4od, I honestly believe it's there network that it's just so slow. This only happens at peak times that leads me to believe it is them, as it isn't HD and when I do a speedtest I get 22mbps so the speed is there at that moment of time.

  • I still cannot stream YouTube/Netflix/iPlayer etc. on my iPhone 4 via WiFi since updating to iOS 6.0.1....can anyone please solve this for me??

    I posted a couple of days ago about a problem my iPhone 4 was having trying to stream video via WiFi
    Basically, since I upgraded to iOS 6.0.1 I cannot stream YouTube videos via the app or via Safari, Netflix will not work nor will services such as BBC iPlayer.
    I've also discovered this evening I cannot stream any radio apps either.
    All of them will play for 10-30 seconds then stop buffering making them impossible to play.
    I was given several pieces of advice including restoring the phone to factory settings, restoring it as a new phone, hard resetting twice in a row, deleting all the cache/data in Safari but nothing that has been suggessted has solved the problem.
    I know it is not a problem with my internet/WiFi as I have a laptop and a PC both using it and streaming YouTube/raddio stations etc. with no problem. Also, my girlfriend has a 3GS with the old YouTube player and that works with no problems at all.
    Can anyone please help me out as it's getting a bit frustrating not being able to use the streaming function on my iPhone.
    One thing that is odd, I have no problem surfing the web on the phone via WiFi or streaming over 3G. It is only a problem when trying to stream video/audio over WiFi.
    Thanks.

    This is a link to the Apple support page on this issue. Have you tried all of these steps?

    Not sure what you mean that you have no signal but are on 3. What are you trying to say?

  • I cant stream video's or watch bbc iplayer etc, just keepts buffering, any ideas

    i cant watch iplayer etc as it keeps buffering. any ideas how to speed up as it wasn't like this when i bought it

    Several thoughts (WAGs, actually).
    I wonder if that's a characteristic of iPlayer (I don't use it) in that it won't play until the entire video downloads.  Does this happen with other apps?
    This may be the Reset that you've already done but I want to be certain.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • Apple TV Streaming problems (again - 2015)

    Is anybody else seeing streaming issues on AppleTV from iTunes content?
    Renting movies or TV shows is just a horrible experience lately (again) - Video either doesn't start and says available for play in x hours, or starts and then stops every 10-30 seconds... Completely unusable.
    I have had issues with streaming off and on for the last couple years, and am really fed up at this point.
    MANY forums talking about streaming issues as well (some old, some current).
    This is NOT a network issue - Broadband is performing great - Have both wired and wireless appleTVs - They can stream Hulu/Netflix/Vevo/etc. just fine, and I can rent and stream Amazon titles perfectly fine.
    Several troubleshooting calls to apple only yield Reboots/upgrades/must-be-your-network responses.
    I am done with purchasing Apple content at this point as I can now get it from other sources that actually work.
    This seems to be a Apple/Akamai Sever issue!
    Please chime in if you are seeing problems.
    Apple needs to address this issue once and for all - or just get out of this self proclaimed "hobby" of Apple TV business...

    I have changed DNS settings numerous times - Google, OpenDNS, other ISPs, even setup my own off my domain in the house - No change.
    My main appleTV is wired directly to a managed switch - i.e. no wireless issues to contend with...
    This is NOT a network problem - I know that's the easy button to push when troubleshooting someone's streaming issues, but I can tell you coming from a CCIE that I do not have a networking problem.
    I don't agree with the higher quality statement across the board.  Yes, some content on other services definitely have lower bit rates/resolution, but they also support VBR streams, such that the stream can ramp up to use the available BW, and for the most part other content (particularly on Amazon) is every bit as high quality as Apple.

  • I have enrolled for the apple developer program but apparently have the same account name in iBooks. I need to change the iBooks account but don't know how. Do I change my apple id? Will this cause me problems with iTunes etc etc?

    I have enrolled for the apple developer program but apparently already have an account with iBooks, cant have this it seems.how do I change my iBooks account, is this the apple id for my iPad and if I change this will it cause problems accessing iTunes etc?

    I guess nobody knows if the crash that occured was legitimate or not?  Apple phone support could do nothing for me, so I guess I am left to drive 45 minutes to the nearest store.

  • I have 2 iCloud accounts. 3 devices use one of them as a primary account; my iPhone uses the other as a primary account so I can't stream photos from iPhone etc. What to do?

    I have 2 iCloud accounts. 3 devices use one of them as a primary account; my iPhone uses the other as a primary account so I can't stream photos from iPhone etc. What to do?

    Sorry, yes indeed you can do that, I thought you wanted to keep the accounts the way they are now and also share photo stream between all devices, which of course is not possible.
    In order to login to the account you are currently logged in to as a secondary account, as a primary account, and vice versa, you will need to delete both accounts from that device and then log back into them with the correct account as a primary (settings > iCloud) and the correct account as a secondary (settings > mail, contacts, calendars).

  • ICloud photo stream problem

    Hi all - I really need your help. 
    My iPhoto '11 was working just fine until I upgraded it to 9.4.3.  I also just installed the recent system upgrade.  Now I am having multiple problems. It seems to stem from Photo Stream.  Activity Monitor shows that Photo Stream is using up gobs of CPU which is strange since it is supposed to not be working...
    In iPhoto, under the preferences, it shows that Photo Stream is not enabled.  If I check the box to turn it on, it just unchecks itself just as quickly.  But in the system preferences, it shows that Photo Stream is set up just fine.  Photo Stream is certainly not working.  And it seem to be totally screwing up iPhoto.  I have tried multiple iPhoto fix options (option alt fixes, restoring a backup library, uninstalling then reinstalling iPhoto) with no improvement.
    I'm not sure if the problem is coming from iPhoto or iCloud Photo Stream problems.  I am running OSX 10.8.4 on a 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7.
    Can anyone tell me what to do?  Thank you so much!

    Well Old Toad, I am stumped.
    I double checked and logged out of iCloud in both user accounts and made sure that PS was not enabled on either library.  Then I restarted the computer.  I went back to my main user account (second account set up = non administrator account) and to my main iPhoto library, logged into iCloud, tried turing on PS = did not work.
    If I do the exact same thing as above for a restore of a backup of my library = does not work.
    If I do the exact same thing above but log in with my first account (not my main one but it is the admin account on the computer) and access the test library I created = PS works just fine with no problem.
    It seems the problem with PS is limited to my primanry account (non-admin).  Do you think the admin privaledges difference between the two accounts could be the problem...?
    As always, I am thankful for your time and advice.

    I Am Sorry. In fact had the DST setting to + 1:0 and I changed to 12:0 am; As the clock time was delayed, because in Portugal we are indeed in summer time!, I changed the time directly. Unfortunately the reminders remain with an hour of advance. The alarm clock that is set crescento for 7:15 minutes as the set initially and never changed. The first reminder has been set for the 7:15 but is now changed to 6:15 due to this error. Does anyone have any suggestions other than modify all reminders. I would add that the Firmware of the Nokia C2 03 est actualized to a V7.48.

    Lamento. De facto tinha a definição de hora de verão para +1hora e alterei para 0horas;
    Como a hora do relógio ficou atrasada, pois em Portugal estamos de facto na hora de verão!, alterei directamente a hora.
    Lamentavelmente os lembretes continuam com uma hora de avanço.
    A crescento que o despertador está definido para as 7:15 minutos como o defini inicialmente e nunca sofreu alterações. O primeiro lembrete foi definido para as 7:15 mas está alterado para as 6:15 devido a este erro.
    Será que alguém tem alguma sugestão que não seja modificar todos os lembretes.
    Acrescento que o Firmware do Nokia C2 03 está actualizado para a V7.48.

  • New Radio Station & Streaming Problems

    I have added my favorite Public Radio station to my iTunes library, but I can not get it to connect. It shows up in the library as a radio station, but nothing happens when I click on the play button.
    In addition, I'm having trouble with all the radio stations I've tried that were already in the iTunes folder. I've tried changing the streaming buffer size in preferences, but the network keeps stalling and needing rebuffering, regardless of the streaming buffer size I choose.

    I single file in a playlist repeats constantly for me (just tried it - don't usually have playlists for single items), but I have never tried using repeat on an audio stream. I expect the repeat doesn't work with streams because iTunes never gets an end-of-file notification which would then tell iTunes to start again at the beginning - but that is just a guess.
    What happens if you open the stream in Quicktime? If the stream is in iTunes library, you can open it's Get Info box, click on Edit URL on the summary tab, and you can then copy the address to paste into Quicktime's Open URL. If the stream is one on the default iTunes Radio list, drag it into your Library and you can then click on the Edit URL button to copy the address. iTunes an Quicktime are not exactly the same, so you may get different results. You could also try VLC Player". Testing streams in another player may help you identify if it is really iTunes at fault.
    I usually don't have streaming problems, although I rarely have a stream on longer than 2 or 3 hours at a time and I think about 5 hours is the longest I've had a stream running.

  • Netflix Streaming Problem with new AppleTV 1080

    Hi there,
    I have had a AppleTV 2 720 for two years. It has been working perfectly with Netflix. I have a new AppleTV 1080 and the streaming from Netflix is awful. The picture drops definition and the audio goes out of sync and sometimes it just comes up with an error message. I have BT Infinity (30+mbps) and never have any issues streaming from Netflix via two or three devices at any one time. I have searched forums with no solution. I have tried lowering from 1080 to 720 on AppleTV, (kind of negates the purchase of a 1080 device though, eh), restarted and restored the AppleTV, logged out and into Netflix. The super HD picture when working is great but not sure if AppleTV 1080 is suited to Netflix. Surely I can't be the only sufferer here, please help! Thank you....

    I found this hidden away on the forum:
    This is what worked for me. It was posted by BenFinklea so he deserves the credit. Since I've done these steps I've had no streaming issues. I agree that it's an Apple issue and not a Netfix one. All my other devices on and off the same network stream just fine. To test this I even bought a Roku LT which I love, especially for the money and it streamed flawlessly. I perfer the format of my Apple TV so I was glad to have it operational again! Good luck.
    Use Google’s Public DNS Server To Fix Apple TV Streaming Problems
    1. Navigate to Settings >> General >> Network and select Configure TCP/IP.
    2. Select “Manually” next to Configure IP.
    3. Dont change the IP address or the Subnet Mask and Router Address. Just click "Done".
    4. Set the DNS Address screen with the following: 008.008.008.008 and click “Done.”
    You should now be able to stream Netflix on your Apple TV.
    I moved the Apple TV unit away from other electronics and rebooted the router/BT Hub and restarted Apple TV. I did the fix as above and it seems to be ok. Will update soon! Thanks Winston....

  • HDV "Stream Problem" while digitizing.

    I am trying to digitize some HDV footage shot in 720p30. I get deck control I can play the footage in the capture window but when I try to capture now it will capture only a few seconds and then stop and give me this message.
    "Stream Problem"
    "Capture was stopped due to a problem with the incoming stream. This might be a problem with the tape. All media up to this point has been preserved."
    Does anyone know what is going on here or how to fix it?

    Greetings everyone,
    Just want to add my two cents and testify that this is a real problem regardless of what JVC or Apple want to disavow. My comrade and I shoot with two JVC GY-HD100U's with the HDV 720p30 codec. We purchased the Firestore DR-HD100's (God bless their soul - I don't care what all the reviewers say about this product - they need a visit from the iPod development team) with the cameras and use those for majority of jobs. No problems with TC breaks. However take that backup tape that was simultaneously recording with the Firestore and perform long captures from tape, we encounter stream breaks. Both cameras have had this problem out of the box. We don't have a dedicated deck since we figured most work will come off the Firestores so when we capture from tape its from the camera. However the Firestores are limited by battery life and for long continuous shoots we fall back on tape. Hence the frustration of TC breaks. Could someone from JVC or Apple take some initiative and find the flaw? Thanks.

  • Use Google's Public DNS Server To Fix Apple TV Streaming Problems

    Many people have been having a streaming problem with the Apple TV - especially with Netflix. In fact, it's often the most popular topic on this forum. After having the same problem off and on for two years, I finally figured out the following solution. It uses Google's public DNS service instead of your ISPs DNS.
    1. Navigate to Settings >> General >> Network and select Configure TCP/IP.
    2. Select “Manually” next to Configure IP.
    3. Dont change the IP address or the Subnet Mask and Router Address. Just click "Done".
    4. Set the DNS Address screen with the following: 008.008.008.008 and click “Done.”
    You should now be able to stream more smoothly on your Apple TV.
    This problem is probably caused by a bad streaming server somewhere on Netflix's CDN (Content Delivery Network). The DNS points your Apple TV based on location. By using Google's DNS, you get a different streaming server. That is, of course, a wild guess and is not verifiable by me. But, it makes sense so I'm going with that.
    If this works for you, please buy a cup of coffee for a complete stranger or some other selfless, random act of kindness.

    Welcome to the  tv Discussion Forums.
    Barring interference to the network (which is probably unlikely but not totally out of the question) I'd agree that your problem seems specific to one mac. IMHO reinstalling an OS is more often than not a lazy mans way of saying they can't be bothered to look for the problem and totally unnecessary so far as I am concerned. I don't believe any version of itunes has been a problem for the tv, although there have been the usual problems posted that usually accompany any upgrade (these are more than likely due to updating over damaged files).
    Reinstalling itunes will replace the application but not many of the associated preference files that are more likely to be a problem than the application itself. Rather than reinstalling itunes, I'd try creating a new user and try itunes in the new user account to see if the problem persists.
    You could also create a new library in the original user account and see if you have similar problems with that library.
    Check your network settings and compare them to the other macs that work OK, check for proxy servers and DNS addresses.

  • Apple TV streaming problems with itunes

    Apple TV streaming problems. Since recent last update to AppleTV when I try to streams movie or tv show from iTunes sometimes it is fine sometimes it takes hours (Hd or Sd). No problem with netflix. Wifi is not super strong in location but this was not a problem at all before update. Any suggestions?
    Paul

    ok.
    this is not a solution to your problem, but you didn't need to do that just to remove it from appletv. you could have simply unticked the item in your library and that would have made it not available to appletv. you could also have amended your sync options. you don't need to delete something from your library just to remove it from appletv.
    however back to your problem. it sounds like the appletv is not syncing the changes to your library. you should restart your appletv and see if that forces the change.

  • Why is my iPhone having streaming problems?

    My iPhone 4S is having streaming problems. Every time I stream music or a video it keeps cutting out.

    NO my iphone is not second hand
    i have done eveything from changing my sim card to a new one TO switching my phone offand on TO doing the airplan mode thing TO resetting the network settings!
