Ikiller Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I have two Itunes acounts and i have set up a home shared network in Itunes but when i try to stream the Ripped MP4s from one itunes to the other it doesnt play. Any help with this problem would be much Appreciated. Thankyou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Hi iKiller, I believe this is due to the fact you have ripped the movies, try playing with the originals and see if it works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikiller Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 the movies play when not being streamed and they play when synced to my IPhone and Ipad but not when streamed. The movie files were originally in AVI format would this affect it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Sorry for late response. The original AVI format could affect this, iTunes is picky. Does iTunes not play .AVI files? or must you convert to .MP4? Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikiller Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 itunes does'nt recognise AVI's so ive had to convert them into MP4 so that they would play. They play well without any problems exept for when they are being streamed then they wont play at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Ah, I see. My setup is that I just stick let my Laptop access my 'backup' harddrive which stores all my Movies, Music etc. Can you not just do this? Is streaming through iTunes a necessity?

Ikiller Posted January 19, 2011 Author Share Posted January 19, 2011 Yes as i am eventually goin to run this to an apple tv and if they dont stream its going to be a waste of £100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
