One purchased movie not playing on Apple TV? Anyone have any solutions as to why one purchased movie (The Lego Batman movie... of course the one that my four year old wants to watch!) won't play on Apple TV when all the others do? It has played in the past, but now I get a "An Error occurred loading this content" message. It plays fine on my laptop.

Error playing purchased movies on apple TV Dear All, Recently Apple TV will not play movies. I choose my film, it plays for approx 2 minutes and 40 seconds before displaying ‘an error occurred loading this content’. Restarting the movie gets the same error message at the same point. I have the latest software, have restarted the device, have signed out and in to iTunes and iCloud on Apple TV. I can stream Netflix and trailers with no buffering so do not expect it is bandwidth related. Any tips greatly appreciated as I have two small children at home who’s like to watch their Christmas films. Thank you.

If you can stream other online content just fine on that device, then such would confirm that the issue is not the network.

Contact the iTunes Store staff for assistance.
