This is baffling, the misses reported this problem to me with her iPad 2. Both browser and I player app suddenly stop showing a picture 20-30 seconds in. The same does not happen on my iPad 3. We are getting full wi fi on both devices, running 6-8mb download speed and run both devices alongside each other. The iPad 2 continues to stall stop showing video but audio continues. I am most concerned as threads/discussions regarding this problem seem to have dried up. All other video/streaming apps work fine. We have a non official hdmi cable that we use fairly regularly to connect to the tv, never had problems with it but wondering if this could have any effect on the firmware? All background apps are closed and problem still persists. This is the oddest and most disappointing failure I have ever seen on an Apple device, can anyone shed any light on this issue?
