Q: Unable to mirror Slingplayer to Apple TV

Until about a month ago, I was able to mirror my Slingplayer for iPad to my Apple TV and now I can't. 

 

I have contacted Slingplayer and they say everything is good on their side.  I have done the following:

  • Reset my Apple TV
  • Turned off Airplay, Reset the Apple TV, then turned on
  • Switched from an Ethernet connection to the Apple TV to wireless
  • Closed all apps on my iPad

 

I am running the latest version of Apple TV and the latest version on my iPad 2.

 

I am still unable to mirror and instead get the following error message:

 

     "An error occurred when loading this content. Try again later"

 

It is much later and I am very frustrated. Any ideas are welcomed!  Thank you!

iPad 2, iOS 6.1.3

    I unfortunately started experiencing this exact issue yesterday. Thanks to this thread I was able to set up the mirroring prior to launching the Slingplayer app. That solution worked for me like it has for other folks here.

     

    I spent some additional time trying to figure out why I could not launch Airplay from within the Slingplayer app anymore after it had worked for the past three weeks, I discovered that when my iPad connects to the 5Ghz band on my router I experience the issue launching Airplay from within the Slingplayer app. When I connect the iPad to the 2.4Ghz band I am able to restore the ability to launch Airplay from within the Slingplayer app.The AppleTV has been connected to the 5Ghz band the entire time.
