so recently i moved all my media to a external drive and i noticed t takes longer to get anything to start playing from the apple tv. is there any way to speed this up?
The delay is likely waiting for the drive to spin up. Once it's spinning, there shouldn't be a delay. You probably wouldn't have any noticeable delay with a SSD.so recently i moved all my media to a external drive and i noticed t takes longer to get anything to start playing from the apple tv. is there any way to speed this up?
i have this same issue, however after 20 minutes we give up watching the movie through the apple tv3. watching a movie on my iMac with teh same source, external drive, causes zero delays. think this is an apple tv issue. before the last update i did not have this delay.
well, you must realize that a usb drive hooked up to an aeb via I presume wireless, then the mac wireless to the atv will cut your bandwidth in half. Cause the move has to be streamed on the network to the mac, then streamed back to the atv. Its not like its a one way connection from the aeb with the usb drive right to the atv. Provided I understand your setup correctly. If not, please disregard the above.
