Ive recently bought an extra ATV2 to use in the bedroom, having got fed up of having to unplug the one from the living room and taking it upstairs with me...(great hardship that it was 
)
Anyway, it seems that since doing this, the ATV units seem to like to forget there is any content at all in my iTunes library (3k+ CDs & a couple of hundred films along with a great pile of TV episodes that Ive painstakingly captured and transcoded from the DVD collection).
The ATV's connect with the mac no problem, thing is, all I get instead of library content is a message saying there is none!
Having had a look about on the web it seems that this is a problem that is afflicting a number of people, and thankfully there is an easy, but rather annoying, workaround - shutting itunes down and restarting it on the mac does the trick....
The point is though - this shouldnt be happening in the first place, and as youve probably gathered - Im lazy enough to spend an extra hundred quid to save carrying a tiny black box up the stairs with me at bed-time... so having to come back downstairs to re-start itunes is a ball-ache!
Has anyone got any ideas what might actually be causing the problem in the first place, so that I (or someone smarter than me) can try and fix it?
Many Thanks for any help on this one....
