Hi all,
Been having this issue for a couple of weeks now. While watching local content streamed from iTunes on my Mac Mini, the audio will occasionally cut out while the video keeps play. Pausing and playing again solves the issue, for a couple of minutes. It'll happen about ten times during a half hour program.
I've been trying to determine where the fault lies (TV, AppleTV, Airport Extreme, Mac Mini) and have done the following:
- Tried different HDMI ports on the TV and tried a brand new cable (no difference - also, blu-ray player works fine with no audio issues)
- Rebooted AppleTV, Mac Mini, Airport Extreme
- Changed the wireless channels on Airport Extreme
I don't think the fault lies with the TV. I initially thought it could be the Airport, but tried various speed tests on my wireless devices and they're pretty fast. The ATV2 has also developed an issue with Netflix, where I have to keep logging in everyday (a huge pain having to log in and enter my password with the stupid remote), and finally my Mac Mini is from 2009 and has definitely seen better days.
Any thoughts on what else I could do to diagnose? I think the next step might be to reset the ATV2 to factory settings and if that doesn't work, do the same to the Mac. Ugh. That'll be a fun weekend.
Thanks!
