Why does streaming keeps starting and stopping?

I got this product about two weeks ago, and I am still having a problem watching movies and traillers.  How do I stop the apple tv (2) from stopping during a video or movie when it does not happen in my old laptop?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check your internet connection speed using speedtest.net
It's recommended that you have a 6 Mbps connection for HD from iTunes and 2.5 Mbps for SD from iTunes. Netflix will vary it's quality to suit the speed of your connection, but if it's too slow it may well stop and start.

  • Why does my music start and stop on my iweb website

    My music was working just great. Then I updated and now my music will start up just fine then it will stop and then in a few minutes will start back up again. This is very annoying can you tell me how to fix this problem. I tried to delete and re add then republish that did not help.
    Please help me fix this, Thanks

    Sounds like a streaming or connection issue.  What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand?

  • Why does my itunes start and stop?

    When I play itunes, every so often the music will stop briefly and then start again.  It is getting progressively worse.

    Court, same thing here....found this link and it stopped.  For whatever reason, it got enabled on startup

  • Why do online videos start and stop and what to do about it

    why do online videos start and stop and what to do about it

    It usually means a slow internet connection, or inadequate hardware or both.
    It is not a 10.6 problem as such as 10.6 handles video streaming quite well.
    In your post this tag seems incongruous in this 10.6 category.

    What are the system specs for your pc? It seems it's to slow to play iphone's 720p HD videos. QT 7.7.3 is the latest for windows but VLC Player will play these videos too.

    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • Videos keep starting and stopping

    I cannot play videos from websites or YouTube, The video will
    play a few seconds, stop for a few seconds or minutes. I have
    uninstalled and reinstalled Flash.
    OS: Windows XP Professional
    Browser: IE 7 or Firefox 2.0.0.16
    Connection: High speed dial up
    Video Player: Flash 9
    Thank you.

    It is now working fine for me (knock on wood).
    There are a couple of things I tried, so I am not sure if it
    was a combination of these, or if something else changed. First, I
    uninstalled and reinstalled the player a number of times. (After
    doing this each time, however, it still kept starting and
    stopping.) Second, I right-clicked on the player during playback to
    pull up the settings, clicked the folder icon, and set the local
    storage to maximum. (After doing this, however, it still kept
    starting and stopping.) Third, I ran an updated version of
    Ad-Aware, which caught and deleted more tracking cookies than my
    virus checker was doing. The next day, everything on the Daily Show
    site seemed to work fine (still haven't checked other sites).
    So my suspicion is that some kind of tracking cookie
    installed itself and was causing the problems. I hope it
    helps.

  • Why is itunes randomly starting and stopping?

    I am running itunes on an iMac running MacOS 10.6.8.  itunes is randomly starting and stopping.  If there a fix for this?

    I am having the same problem.  I have recently bought and now use a track pad on my iMac.  Also, I bought an app, rowmote that turns my iPhone as a remote.

  • Why does iMovie project jerk and stop and start in preview?

    I have been making iMovies with iMovieHD for years using photos with the Ken Burns effect.
    Recently after a movie project gets more than a few minutes long with typical audio and transitions, I no longer can preview it without it jerking and stopping and starting.
    Obviously this does not allow me to see what I am doing, how the music matches or doesn't match my photos.
    I have tried emptying the iMovie trash and emptying my finder trash, no change.
    I have made sure there is plenty of hard disk space on my internal drive, where iMovie and the movie file is located.
    Any ideas?

    Hi
    a. Emptying the trash - something I alway avoid - no matter why.
    b. Plenty of free space on internal (start-up) hard disk ? > 25Gb after
    project is captured and edited ?
    c. Deleted iMovie pref file ?
    d. Known trouble maker: Lot's of audio clips. eg > 50 gives a stuttering result
    Mix down audio to one audio clip.
    e. What kind of original material. 12-bit audio or recording in LP-mode (90min
    on a 60min tape) GIVES problems + audio sync troubles.
    f. .mpg4, .avi, .wmv and other ailient file formats also is problematic.
    g. movie stored on an external USB/USB2 hard disk - often troublemaker.
    I use FireWire AND ONLY: Mac OS Extended formatted -
    UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchande DOESN'T WORK

  • Hi - my Imac's hard drive keeps starting and stopping, when the imac is idle.  The Imac is working perfectly otherwise.  Any ideas?

    Hi my 4 year old Imac's hard drive keeps starting, whirring briefly, then stopping, when the machine is asleep.  Doesn't do it when in actual use.  The Imac is working perfectly otherwise.  Any ideas?

    Gracias mi amigo; there are a lot of options on the side bar in console, but I think I can see the issue - calendar agent - thousands of entries, all identical. Recently installed outlook 2011, so ? conflicting with Ical?

  • When i am on youtube, the videos keep starting and stopping. Why?

    some videos play alittle longer before it freezes and then begins again....and keep doing throughout the video... sometimes the video wont play at all...please help...thanks

    Assuming your internet connection is not the problem, go to Youtube and start to view a video. Pause the video, and then right-click on the video. Flash will then pop up a context menu, click Settings. On the first tab of the settings menu there is an option to de-select "Use hardware acceleration." If the box is not checked, check it, and if it is already checked, un-check it. Then try to play the video again. You may need to re-load the page afterward.
    You'll want to update your outdated plug-ins, like Java. See:

  • Why does Encore keep crashing and where are the media files?

    I am having big problems with Encore right now.  I have developed a rather complex DVD with something like 20 movies on it.  The video files associated with these movies are all in .wmv format; about 4gb total in size and are stored on an external drive as is the Encore file with which I am authoring this DVD.  This drive has a USB connection to my computer which I know is not the best but I have managed to author an earlier draft of this DVD no problem.
    The problem now is that Encore keeps crashing.   Also, in the process, a lot of disc space is eaten up on my "C" drive.  I don't know why this is and where to go to delete these files.  I have defragged my computer and my anti-virus scans are up to date.  I am running a windows XP Home Edition O/S with an Intel pentium 4 CPU, 2.79 ghz with 2.5 gb of RAM.  I went to edit>preferences>media>location in Encore and got that my media files are on my C drive in Adobe>library but, when I looked, they didn't seem to be there.  Super frustrating!   Also my computer is super-slow too.   I deleted all temp files and there is no spyware to speak of, according to my virus scan software (Panda).
    Does anyone have any ideas as to how to address this problem?  Many thanks!

  • Why does Illustrator keep crashing and closing?

    I'm using Windows 7 (64bit.) and have AI CS6.
    With no warning, AI keeps shutting down saying that my preferences are corrupt, and it's reverting to the old ones.
    I have absolutely no clue what's happening, except that it's been installed for less than 24 hours and it's already happened 4 times, with no sign that it's going to happen before it does.
    Please help!
    Beth.

    Some tool is accessing your files which could be anything from Windows' system restore to a virus scanner to whatever. And this could of course also be genuine hardware issues with your harrdrives. Not that it matters much, considering AIs general (tw)/(b)itchiness and unreliability, but perhaps checking your Event Viewer might reveal some useful info... and also provide exact system information.

  • I have the first iPad, and it keeps crashing no matter what program(safari) app (iTunes) or game I use. I check the updates regularly and I'm up to date. Why does it keep crashing and how can I fix it?

    I have the first iPad (which is considered ancient). I'll open safari and no matter what I'm searching after a few minutes it crashes (it will close safari and bring me back to the main app screen). The last few days I've been searching song on iTunes, and I have the same issue. It closes my iTunes and brings me to the main app screen.
    I have checked my updates and everything is current for this iPad. It's a 64gb iPad with 54gb of available space so I know it's not a storage issue.
    Does anyone have some pointers on how to keep it from crashing all the time?

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
