Works with Streaming Video from Internet but NOT Direct from iPhone.
Here's a strange problem: I have a 2nd Gen. ATV that I access from my iPhone via AirPlay. Both the ATV and iPhone are on the same wifi network. Typically, I'm sending video streaming from a website Via AirPlay, and have never had any problems. I added some videos from iTunes to my iPhone, and tried to send them via AirPlay Via Apple's Video app. For some reason the videos playing from the iPhone 5S take a long time to "load", and then will only play for a few minutes at a time, before pausing and "loading". It's impossible to watch a video this way to state the obvious.
I Tried a side by side test, streaming video from the Internet, and sending video from the phone. The Internet streaming loaded quickly and played uninterrupted. The video played from Apple's Video app took forever to load and paused every few minutes ... Consistently and repeatedly.
SO what's going on here? When I'm streaming video from the Internet, my iPhone has to download the content into itself via the wifi network, then it sends it back to the router which then sends it to the ATV, so that seems like there would much more congestion than simply sending it from the phone to the router and to the TV. So video stored on the iPhone played via the Videos app should theoretically outperform video content I'm streaming from the Internet, right?
Anybody have any ideas what's causing this problem?
