Apple TV (gen 3) freezes when Streaming from iTunes

I have a third generation Apple TV (latest updates OS) on an airport extreme wireless network 802.11ac. When you try to stream from iTunes (latest) on Mavericks (all patches), many videos can take up to five minutes to start playing, and after playing for twenty or thirty minutes, they "freezing" for anywhere from one minute to five minutes before resuming playback. If I was streaming on the internet, I could understand the delay, but it doesn't have much sense when streaming from a local source.

What I'm trying to listen to are movies and TV shows that have been downloaded on iTunes. On Apple TV, I select 'Machines' and then select 'Movies' or 'TV Shows' and select the movie or TV show to watch. According to the film or television show, they will be either start immediately or that there may be a delay until five minutes before starting to play.

I restarted the Apple TV and I checked there is nothing cached on the device, so I don't see where any content downloaded on Apple TV, itself might be forced memory.

I took my two my edge router and my WiFi network and I can verity that Apple TV is streaming on the computer and not from the internet. I also checked that there are no other consequence WiFi activity (NTP updates, updates to the ASP, etc., but without the use of actual data bandwidth) and I checked that iTunes is the only process that consumes any real network, CPU, or the disk on the computer resources is continuous from. I also checked the other devices on the network are also not any bandwidth real WiFi.

So I'm puzzled. Any idea what's going on here? Why Apple TV freezes? It is really this poor management of its buffers work? (I find that hard to believe!)

Any ideas on how to debug this yet? Even better, any ideas how solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!

  • Satellite A660-07 s keeps freezing when streaming videos

    I bought a new laptop from Toshiba Satellite A660-07 s recently, since he started to freeze when I use video applications, such as Skype or Youtube, etc... Frost occurs randomly, and the only way out is long by pressing the switch (hunting). I returned the laptop several times for Toshiba certified technician and we almost completely reinstall software and operating system, replace the motherboard, graphics card, memory etc. and the problem is always the case. The laptop is great and does the job very well except for this random gel that is very annoying and there is no way to explain why it is happening.

    I think maybe there is a flaw in the design of the system and components do not work together very well. I also read on a few other issues with laptops satellite which freezes. I use another laptop, and I am a computer scientist. Never had this problem before and can not explain why this laptop freezes in particular. Can anyone shed light on what could be the problem to the technician and users may be able to solve this problem.
    As I said, we have tried all what you would do to eliminate the problem and nothing has worked so far.

    Thanks in advance for your responses and suggestions.

    Hey,.

    I m wondering really that your computer laptop doesn t work properly with video applications. Friend of me has the same laptop and it often use video applications like Skype, Youtube, etc. Also, he'd watch DVD and blu - ray but no problems at all.
    It uses the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba and everything is ok.

    In your case I would ask again authorized service provider what they can do for you. I mean if many parts have been replaced already there must be a solution to your problem and if it of a hardware related problem, you can do anything and you need professional help.

    Perhaps the ASP can get in touch with Toshiba directly or else just talk a bit with them, I m sure that the problem could be solved.

    Sorry that I can't say more, but the A660 from my friend is the perfect job.

  • Can't hear my music on my iMac speakers, when played from iTunes

    All of a sudden (from last week), I'm not able to hear the music I have, when played in iTunes on my iMac (late 2013, using OS X, El Capitan). I did not anything either on my sound system or external speakers at all... and in fact, they work very well with all the other software, websites, and regular sounds. It's just the music from iTunes I can't hear over the speakers. He's playing very well and I can see that visually... just can not hear anything. Boring... anyone so no matter what help they can offer me?  I use the latest version of the iTunes software (version: 12.3.2.35), and it worked very well in the beginning... until last week. Turned on the computer... and no sound of music! Thanks in advance.

    OK... never mind. Finally, I realized there is a small (one to the top triangle at the bottom of a rectangle) icon at the top of iTunes, next to the volume control bar. It allows you to choose which speakers to listen to music in strange thing is... I got my device 'Apple TV' selected and just need to select 'computer' in place... but I never changed it! So this means that I have to select 'Apple TV' every time I want to play the iTunes library on my Apple TV later? Weird. I hope this is changed in the software soon, if this is the case. Just another thing I need to do is NOT HOMOGENEOUS and it should be. Thank you! (I'll leave this place in case someone else has this problem and can not solve).

  • Pavilion 15-p077TX: my HP Pavilion p077TX 15 notebook freezes when moved from its position

    Whenever I move my laptop from its position, it freezes. As I kept my phone on my bed and I pick it up and place it on my lap then it crashes / freezes. So every time I have to remove the battery and put it again whenever this happens. Sometimes twice a day. It gets really frustrating whenever you do something important. So what I can make of this is that whenever I move the laptop to a certain speed, it freezes, it means that something inside it moves from its ideal location (doesn't happen when I move it very slowly).

    Any cause of definte and the solution?

    Thank you

    I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion Notebook 15 - p077tx and concerns with closing while moving Notepad. I recommend that you only take the laptop to a repair center to find the part that is loose. You can check your warranty here.

    Please let me know how it goes.

  • LR 2.3 freezes when importing from CF card reader photos

    We use LR for some time.  Repeatedly noticed when import a few hundred new photos than LR 2.3 will freeze for importing photos from a CF card reader (Lexar Professional Player and Lexar CF cards).  The computer must be rebooted which causes corruption catalogue and had to start all over again. I use an iMac (3.06 GHz Intel processor dual core) with 4GBs of RAM and 800 GB HARD drive.  All the operating system software are uptodate.  I was wondering if others have the same problem and what, if any, work arounds could be out there.  Adobe does not have this problem on their Web site.

    Image capture is an application that ships with Mac OS X. It can be used to control what happens during a reconnaissance of the card, but it is not necessary. I have my Mac configured to simply use Finder to copy maps, if for some reason, I use LR.

    I think that once you reformat your card, you may find LR will very well be important.

  • Satellite A660-07U freezes when Streaming video

    I bought a Toshiba satellite A660 07U 2 months ago.
    Since the beginning, when I try to watch any video streaming of Facebook, Youtube, etc, my system crashes completely and don't stop making the zzzzz... noise and I have to manually shut down the laptop by pressing the power button.

    This happens very often now. I contacted toshiba support and the response was to change my microphone amplifier, configure Volume settings... : smileysurprised:.

    Does anyone have advice for this problem?

    Hello

    This only happens for internet streaming videos or have you noticed that also play videos stored on the HARD drive?
    Could it be linked to the internet connection is slow?

    If this isn't the case, then I would check the processes running in the background. Some processes may insist on the CPU, and this might be the reason of this gel.

    Just an another idea;
    Have you checked a few other graphics drivers? Update the driver and test again.
    I recommend also using actors.

    Good luck

  • Laptop freezes when restored from sleep mode.

    Hello
    I'm running Windows XP, SP3 on a laptop Lenovo Thinkpad 61 T.
    My computer works fine, except that if I put in mode 'sleep' and then wake it, it freezes. Even the Windows shut down does not work, and I have to restart with the power button.  When the computer reboots, it works fine.  I did virus scans and even replaced the operating system and installed programs with an image that I made well before this problem started.
    I could use some advice.  Thanks in advance.
    Dan S

    Could be something as simple as a video driver, or a change in the power settings.

    Can first update you your video driver to the latest version available?

    The go to start > Search > type CMD > right click and run as admin > type powercfg /a

  • Apple doesn't disclose your previous balances from iTunes

    I already posted this question here before and received no response. iTunes mysteriously are not answering this question either. Can you help me?

    I asked for a refund on a purchase of iTunes. Apple said they would give me a refund. Great! However, I didn't have my previous stored balance. There seems to be no way of knowing if the dollars have actually been credited to my balance. Apple says they have, but I do not see my previous balance. I don't see my current balance.

    This got me thinking. How do you verify that Apple correctly manage the balance of your iTunes if you do not see the history of the balance. You always remember your balance.

    It's great that you can view your purchase history, but if the balance running is not displayed next to each purchase, how do you know that you are not being ripped off?

    It's your choice. Believe what says a company billions of dollars, have proof that what it says here is incorrect, or trusting the company that they are worthy of trust. You can, at any time, check your purchase (including credits) story to both iTunes and your credit card statements.

    If I had no evidence to the contrary, I want to stay free of any charge.
