Streaming problems from PC to ATV1stGen
Hi all,
I have had my 1st Gen AppleTV for a number of years now (synced to my MBP) and been very happy with it. Recently I finally converted my partner to the world of Apple and iTunes. We would therefore like to continue using as before (i.e. photos, shows and music synced to my MPB iTunes) but also now playing his music shared on his PC's iTunes.
This all seems possible, and indeed we get the system to connect via the Shared Music section on AppleTV, however after it had been playing for a while (over an hour or so) the music stops and we find AppleTV is frozen. We therefore have to leave it for 10/15 mins until it reboots itself, or we have to unplug and start over.
Any ideas where to look to resolve this? We have set the PC to never go to sleep mode for the hard drive. Is this just a Windows/Apple thing? Would it be resolved if we moved to the 2nd Gen AppleTV?

Ok, I reconfigured my system. Current setup is now

I just tried to connect with both the Xbox and the blu ray player, no luck.
Yes, that is disappointing.. can you briefly borrow the router from your neighbour and test it again.. I would really like to see what happens when you put the netgear back and pull full ipconfig /all from the computer. Or another router of any kind.. if your modem is also a router completely remove the TC and see what happens.
The Xbox360 won't even recognize the PC at all. I thought for sure this would work as the Time Capsule is completely out of the picture, or so I would have thought.
What can change when you swap router??
Windows can change.. here is one I missed in the previous suggestions.. windows can jump from home location to work or public without telling you, simply because you changed router. Jump into windows PC and make sure the location is set to home.. turn off the firewall even. Turn off ipv6 as the TC is ipv6 capable and that could mess things up.
Even turn on the guest account with full permissions.. and see if any of those things helps.
How do I set the IP for the blu-ray and PC to something other than the default? I tried to do that through the AirPort Utility in the Time Capsule. Network->DHCP Reservations->+ That lets me put in the MAC address for the device I want to reserve, but it only allows me to change the last bit of the address. So it grays out the 10.0.1 and only allows me to change the last number.
No, you cannot do it via dhcp.. you set manual IP address.. in other words, open the PC networking.. go to TCP/IP properties and change from auto to manual and set IP as I indicated. You do it directly on the PC and directly on the bluray and xbox.. not via dhcp.

Bluetooth streaming problems from iPhone5 to Subaru Outback stereo...
Why is my car's (2014 Subarbu Outback) Bluetooth streaming only one artist, not purchased but transferred from my iTunes on MacBook Pro, from my iPhone5 to my car's stereo system and only control I have is to go to 'next' song? Any help greatly appreciated...
Where are you looking at controls at, the phone or the vehicle? What troubleshooting have you tried? I have read other threads regarding problems with late model Subaru vehicles, so you might want to do a search of that.
Otherwise, I would recommend removing the car from the list of devices on the phone, turn Bluetooth off. Then do a reset on the phone, holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After that, remove the phone from the listing on the car, turn the car off. Then turn the car on and put it into discovery/pairing mode. Turn Bluetooth on for the iPhone and see if they connect. If then do, see what connection you have then. -

Thx a lot -
TS2972 I am having problems streaming content from iTunes on my computer to the Apple TV.
I cannot stream content from iTunes on my computer to my Apple TV (latest model).
I have checked the following -
iTunes Version 11.1.5.5
No Windows updates outstanding for the computer
Home Sharing is turned on in both iTunes and the Apple TV
The wireless network appears to be OK
iTunes connects to the Store so the computer is OK
the Apple TV connects to external content - You Tube etc
I have opened up TCP/IP port 3689 and UDP port 5353 in the McAfee Firewall
When I turn on the Apple TV and check the Computer Icon, I get the following message -
"To access your iTunes library on Apple TV, turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer using "..the Apple ID...".
Where to next?
Voyager999Well, after 1 hour of phone support and 90 minutes of on-line support, McAfee finally resolved the problem.
If anyone else has a similar problem, tell McAfee to look at Service Request 1443603280. -
Problem streaming music from iPhone to airport express
Hi
I use a Airport express connected to my stereo to stream music from my iMac and iPhone. It works brilliantly and seamisily from my iMac but when i try to listen to music from my iPhone it connects up but then plays the music but it keeps dropping out and you hear the music but it seams to keep loosing the connection.
the imac and iPhone are connected to the same wifi network as the airport express. If i lay the iphone near the wifi router it still drops the signal and drops the connection to the airport express
ive got an iPhone 4s running Iso 5 and lion on my Mac
just a note ive had this problem with my previous iPhone 3gs running the old iso and the new iso 5 when i updated it the other month
I have also updated the Firmware on the airport express
any suggestions or solutions would be greatuly recieved.
Thanks in advancethanks for your replies.
It's because I have one router for internet (that I share with my neighbors) and another with my Airport Express hooked to it.
But I would like to stream my music when I go to my friends.
I'll write to Apple -
While streaming music from my i-phone 4s, it stops working after 2 miutes and so does music from my i-tunes after about two songs, very frustrating! Have tried allsorts!!!
That indicates a network issue, what exactly have you tried?

How do I stream music from non-iTunes apps to Airport (mac air core-i7 OS 10.7.5 airport firmware 7.6.1 --- option-clicking speaker icon only shows internal speakers - audio streaming works from iTunes just fine.
Hello Achates:
I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.

Cannot stream RENTALS from Mac to apple TV via Homesharing
Hi,
very odd problem here since a couple of weeks. I have a Apple TV 3rd Gen. which I use to stream content from my Mac via Homesharing. Everything works well (I can stream music, images, movie-long HD podcasts) besides I want to stream a rental video. I can browse through the library, select a movie as normal but when I fire it off to play it takes forever to start playing. I was waiting for minutes but the movie does not start. On the other hand I can stream the rental flawlessly the other way round, from my Mac to my Apple TV. It takes just seconds to start.
I cannot really work out when the issue appeared but it surfaced a few weeks ago.
Any idea how to solve this?
Thanks,
TomYou can do this either from the music app on the iPad or from the remote app, it's quite simple and intuitive. Once you get the iPad it should be quite apparent how it works. If you aren't sure at that time post back.

K430 Bad streaming problem - help needed
Hello everyone,
I wonder if any of you can help me or have had a similar problem.
I bought a Lenovo Ideacentre K430 Desktop PC (Intel Core i7 3770 3.4GHz Processor, 16GB RAM, 2TB HDD, DVD, LAN, WLAN, Nvidia Graphics, Windows 8) two months ago via Amazon and on the whole have been very pleased with it.
However I have had a major problem when it comes to streaming video. For example, when watching TV programmes via BBC iPlayer it will stop after about 45 secs and say that there is insufficient bandwith. Yet, when I run the BBC diagnostic it says the streaming speed is 3621 kbps and is sufficient. (I have two laptops in the house and both of these stream video without any problems). I also have the same problem when streaming video from other websites. When using websites generally they seem to load quickly and also when downloading items it seems to do these jobs at a good speed: it is just when streaming it seems to have a problem and stops.
I have even switched the K430 desktop to an ethernet cable to see if that helps - but the problem still persists. All the other devices in the house, i.e. iPhone, Wii, laptop all stream via the wi-fi without any problems.
I'm not that technical , so any advice and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
many thanks,
Matthi Pikemonster,
Welcome to the Forums.
Just to verify, do you get the same issue if you stream via flash player using i.E., Chrome, or Firefox?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/tv
Also, have you tried to adjust the video quality (i.e. medium, low, etcl)

Streaming media from wireless external hard drive and MBP to TV?
Hi everyone. I have a retina MBP and have recently bought a Sony Bravia smart tv with wireless. I have a time machine (the new one) with an external hard drive connected to it with all my media, photo, movies etc. My tv is connected to my wireless from the time machine and I'm wondering how do I stream media from my external hard drive to my tv? And how do I stream media from my MBP to my tv wirelessly? I can't seem to figure it out. Also mirroring my MBP desktop to my tv wirelessly, can it be done without an apple tv? Thanks in advance.
I had the same issue. It was due to the appalling performance of the USB connection to the disk, not any issue with the wireless connection itself. My iMac was within 7m of the router, on the same floor, with a clear line of sight and good reported connection speed. I have the latest late-2009 version of the AEBS running the 7.5 firmware. This has loads of performance problems (read these forums). I'm hoping that Apple will release the new firmware (7.51) for download soon and then the issue may be resolved.

Can't view photos or stream videos from websites on iPad 3
When I go to a website with safari, I can't stream video or view photo galleries. It tells me that I need adobo flash player. That is not supported for this device. How do I see photoographs or stream video from websites??
Jenpre.... keep your head down in that hurricane, and good luck. I hope it moves away soon for you all.
When I say "more modern", from what I've read many sites recognise that Flash can be a problem on mobile devices (phones and tablets) because it's very power hungry. So, if I understand things correctly, many sites are putting up html5 versions, which is supposed to be much easier on computers / devices. Quite oftne when I go to a site on my iPad it auto-diverts to the "mobile" version of the site, and I haven't found a single case where I can't see a video. To be truthful, even if not directed to a mobile version, I don't have much trouble with any of the sites I visit..... I can see most videos and pretty much all graphics, the same as I can on my Mac, which does run Flash.
Still, I'm sure a computing expert will know much more.
Good luck in that hurricane....
PS... there are quite a few good hurricane tracking Apps you know.... -
I am Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode. I am using the Optical Out from the Apple TV to my receiver, the Apple TV is hard Wired to the Network, the IPAD is Wirelessly attached to the network (it continues to play the Audio Stream). When the Apple TV is turned back on it resumes playing once I manual select it for output from the IPAD. All device are on current releases of software. I have no Video hooked up to the Apple TV. How do I correct this?
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment. -
HT1551 Streaming music from iPhone 4 to apple tv
I can stream videos and photos no problem from my iPhone but can't seem to play music. I can select the button which gives you a choice of iPhone or apple tv but just seems to play silently on my phone and not through the tv. The button seems to turn blue for some reason(not sure if relevant). I've done the usual reboots, software updates etc but doesn't work. Any ideas ?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Did you restart your Apple TV, iPhone and the router. What format is the music in. -
I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay. Works perfectly with my iPod Touch. The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect. Running latest IOS software.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
You said:
No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this.
That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem. -
JMF How to stream rtp from udp packet
I implemented an rtsp client and use the client to setup two rtp session(audio, vedio). But when I use the example pramgram "AVReceive3" to stream the udp packet, it doesn't work.
When the AVReceive3 receive the udp packet from the rtp port, it will call the update(ReceiveStreamEvent evt) function, and the event type is StreamMappedEvent, and the call to evt.getReceiveStream().getDataSource() return null.
I thought the first event should be NewReceiveStreamEvent. Please help to solve the problem.

Thanks.The error of No format has been registered for RTP Payload type 96
is caused by the dynamic payload mapping, when I add the dynamic mapping between dynamic payload and format. The Player cann't work yet. I think it because JMF doesn't support the format of my clips. For example:
video: a=rtpmap:96 H263-2000/90000
audio:a=rtpmap:97 MP4A-LATM/12000/1
Is there some available plugin to support these format?
Thanks
