Requirements

• For Airtame 2 to support native AirPlay, the device must be running firmware version 4.2.0 or higher.

• Bonjour needs to be enabled on your network in order for AirPlay to work. This normally entails enabling Multicast Mode and IGMP Snooping.

• For networks with multiple VLANs, getting AirPlay to work across all of them requires some extra administration. Required steps vary depending on the network equipment vendor, but some basic guidelines can be found in this article.

• The ports used by the AirPlay receiver (i.e. the Airtame device) are:

  

  Note that "..." means that if this port is not available the next available port is used.

Considerations

• Media playback/casting is supported via AirPlay, with the exception of content protected by digital rights management (e.g. Netflix).

• Streaming via AirPlay is supported at 30fps, but this depends on the bandwidth available on your network. When casting video content, the video timecode progress bar might not be reflected.

• If you're getting an AirPlay pin code request, but the Airtame device is not displaying a pin code, please check that you have the AirPlay outgoing requests pairing password enforced toggle setting disabled. This setting is usually part of a Device Management (MDM) profile that is added to and configured on iPhones and iPad. This is accessible by going to Settings > General > Device Management > Profile Name. It's generally used on iOS devices that are part of a corporate environment. Disabling that setting in the profile should allow you to use AirPlay with Airtame without a password prompt.
