Apple TV displaying the spinning buffering wheel while playing movies!?
I have been using the "classic" ATV with no issue, until lately it has been exhibiting very odd behavior: whenever I play a movie purchased from the iTunes Store, it will display the spinning (loading?) wheel in the middle of the screen. Constantly. It happens whether I play the movie or any of the clips in an iTunes extras file. What is going on? I tried signing out and back into iTunes store under Settings. Occasionally that seems to fix it, but not always. Especially not with the Extras content. ANy idea what's going on? Is it buffering? Trying to access the iTunes store (if so, why?). And what do I need to do to make it STOP doing that? I can't really watch a movie or special features like that. I can post a pic if my description is not clear. To clarify: this is the original ATV so it's not streaming: it's playing from its own hard drive synced to my iTunes library.
Thanks!
