Just started using it and I am finding some odd things happening - I can access the music no problem, but as I play it over wifi to my wifi speaker set-up music gradually starts to disappear again (over about 15 minutes) until there is none showing. The only way to get it back is to recreate a home sharing link.
Anyone else have this?
Have used it for ages, streaming to apple tv, airport express etc and all works fine. Although I do subscribe to iTunes Match as well so use sharing mostly for films to apple tv.
Yes, have not had that problem with Apple TV home sharing (music, movies etc). To be honest we use it only very occasionally so I am not an expert. I am lazy and just plug my iPhone/iPad into my stand alone speaker with a jackplug !
I am wondering whether it is plugging it into the adapter on the dock that is making the music disappear - perhaps the device stops using wifi?
Sorry cannot help with that. It seems very odd it disappears gradually, I'd think it would be all or none. Does the device play via homesharing happily when its stand alone (ie through its own speaker) ? You could also test it by plugging the phone in with a jackplug (cost about £1.50 online) and then using home sharing.
I haven't tried playing it when it's not plugged in (I meant to try but forgot) but it isn't ideal as we wanted to be able to keep it charged in the dock.
