How big a movie will stream on apple tv3
WE were attempting to watch a 2.5 hr movie stramed out of a Mac Pro (older version cannot go to mevericks) hard wired to a Apple Extream wireless router to the Apple Tv3 all up to date as hardware allows. Movie would not stream. It plays fine on the computer itself but streaming stalls. So a couple questions come to mind, can iTunes/Apple Tv3 stram larger movies 2hrs and over without problem? Even though a movie may be compressed, does streaming take the compressed files size or the uncompressed file size which a 1.8gig movie would blossm to a much larger file size as uncompressed. So if there were a file size limit (4Gig) even a 1.8gig movie could surpass depending on compression.
We have only had streaming issues with these longer movies not usually under 2hrs.
Curious.
Thanks folks.
