So, tonight, it all came to a head and I unplugged the thing and threw it in the trash.
Months and months of non-existant constant streaming of movies, failure to sync, and failure to retain previously synced content have just let me to say "enough" with Apple TV.
The movies that I stream to it via my iMac load, and play, for about 5 seconds before the connection drops and the bar just sits there and attempts to load and pretty much stays hanging.
Only the music content that has been synced to it already (and on its hard drive) play like they are supposed to.
Youtube is slow to load movies, but again, the main issue is the fact that my Apple TV (40GB or around that I believe) cannot hold a stream to play my movies for longer than 30 seconds. I've had the DSL guys come out and fix an "open" in the line that was causing dropping through my Time Capsule, and that fixed it for a few days before it started happening again.
Anyone else gone through this nightmare or am I just stuck with this issue? I've had it for a year and a half so apple won't replace it.
