Known Limitations
1. Some live-streaming applications, like Netflix, do not work with AirReceiver.
•
Some live streaming applications, such as Netflix, Amazon Video, HBO Go,
YouTube and most sports/TV apps, either use their own custom protocol or
prevents connections that are not originating from an iOS or MacOS device. Some
of the service providers behind these applications also prevent an Apple TV to
display content over AirPlay. We are currently researching into ways of adding
this support into future versions of AirReceiver. In some instances, you might be
able to mirroring and stream content to another device.
2. Unable to stream DRM protected movies from iTunes.
•
Does not support streaming of DRM protected movies from iTunes.
1. iOS/MacOS device setup for AirPlay with AirReceiver
