I remember this same behavior from a long time ago and it was MetaX screwing something up in the file that caused it. Anyway, thus far MetaZ has been doing a great job labeling Blu-Ray encodes and unlike MetaX, it never seemed to create an unusable file, even if writing to it multiple times.īut when I went to try the Anne of Green Gables from an Apple TV Gen1, it would start playing audio with no picture and then freeze the whole unit when you hit stop. I've got the latest versions of Subler and MetaZ for setting flags and Meta information (Subler can do Meta data on its own, but it doesn't use all fields and never has chapter labeling so I still use MetaZ which took over for MetaX which had a LOT of issues sometimes and couldn't be trusted always so I had to be sure and use backups). I just encoded the Anne of Green Gables set of DVDs using Handbrake. They always work.well except for one thing recently (other than the server-side thing that killed them all earlier this year for a few weeks). I've seen that once before and a reboot fixed it, but I've NEVER had that problem with my 1st gen AppleTV units. It just gave a busy signal that would finally say it had a problem connecting. I'm thinking now a reboot of the AppleTV might have helped. I just hate losing XBMC options because Apple REFUSES to support MKVs and AVIs (and I don't care to lose further quality by converting AVIs MKVs could be converted, but then I'd lose features like 7.1 DTS-HD MA and DolbyTrue Sound that XBMC can handle and Apple doesn't give a crap about.Ī friend came over and I was going to demonstrate my home theater and the AppleTV 2 REFUSED to play any videos from my computer. Here I was thinking of getting a model 3 since I'm tired of waiting for this elusive next generation model with the App store support, etc. I was having exactly the symptoms described on this thread and the actions described above solved the problem for me using Apple TV 3 with iTunes on mac on a wired home network. Now add to iTunes and play through Apple TV. ![]() If filesize is greater than 4GB check '64 bits chunk offset' option.Select File Format 'Video-MPEG-4' (m4v).Drag offending mp4/m4v/mkv file into window.The result - no judder, smooth playback like before! A flick on the fast forward button followed quickly by play would offer a brief remedy but within 10 mins the judder returned again.Īfter troubleshooting every which way and conceding that my only remaining option was to hope a future Apple update would correct the problem I tried re-muxing an offending file in Subler. Video would play smoothly for 10 mins then the judder would kick in. I upgraded ATV 3 to software version 6.1 (and then to 6.1.1) and began to notice this frustrating motion judder/framedropping problem on content that previously did not judder. ![]() I have previously used MP4Tools on mac to convert 720p MKVs to M4v files for Apple TV 3.
