Streaming BOD to TV

I’m having so much problems streaming my BOD workouts to my TV. It’s not working at all from my iPad and now even from my phone it keeps quitting. My softwares are up to date except that I have an older version of the Apple TV. Is that why? For Apple users, what are you using to stream? Thanks!

I have a first gen apple tv and occasionally it has trouble connecting or quits. If I restart the box it will usually behave for a month or so.

I stream BBOD by connecting my ipad directly to my TV via a HDMI cable

I have not tried it myself (I do not subscribe) but Beachbody on Demand has a free app through the Amazon firestick if you have one. It may also be available through Amazon Prime, but I'm not sure. I used the Les Mills on Demand app through the Amazon Firestick and it worked fine.

I find that the Apple TV streaming seems to be the poorest way to stream BOD. I don't know exactly which model of Apple TV I have, but it's not brand new (nor is my iPad).

I have much better luck with the Beachbody ROKU app and streaming from my android phone using my Chromecast.

Are you streaming from the website on your phone or the app? I had much better luck streaming from the app on my iPad to my 2nd generation AppleTV than I did streaming from the website using using the mirror function.

I have since upgraded to a 4K AppleTV and stream from the app on the TV (no iPhone or iPad necessary) and have had no issues with BOD or LMOD or Cathe Live.

I have also used the latest version of Roku for BOD very successfully.
