Airplay problem...

[BMox81]

Hi,

I've got a video that I'm watching on my ipad on YouTube and I send it to my Apple TV.

But when I want to come out of YouTube to browse the web, while continuing to watch the the video, it stops.

I've then tried BBC iplayer and I'm able to watch the video and do other stuff on my pad.

Any idea what might be wrong?

Google/YouTube don't allow background playback for some reason.

Ok.

This happens with other video related apps as well - is this the case for them as well?

Yup. Totally up to each app whether they allow background video playback or not.

Jasmine supports background playing, iirc. May want to try that.
