Apple TV airplay playing trailers but not shows/movies

We can play trailers through our Apple TV via airplay but always get a ‘content could not be loaded’ when trying to play the actual movies or shows. We have been through all of the trouble shooting - same wifi, software updates, reboots, turned off subtitles, etc etc.


The fact that we can play trailers suggest it is connected but odd cannot do anything more. Have even downloaded content before playing and that hasn’t helped.


Any suggestions welcome pls!

iPhone 11, iOS 15
