Recently we had an extended outage of our cable service. During that time I streamed some movie etc from my mac mini to my apple tv. What I found strange is when using the remote and going through home sharing and choosing a movie the apple tv would just sit there and spin the processing indicator and would not bring the movie up. But, When I went to the mini and started the movie and chose to air play to the apple tv, it worked fine.
My network consists of an apple router (latest one) and of course the mini. The router is only about 15 feet from the apple tv.
Any thoughts on why I could not get a movie started from using the remote? I'd like to get this figured out as they're supposed to be doing another upgrade in the area which will require an outage again (don't get me started on that).
BTW, when choosing to play just music, it worked fine from the remote.
