how to watch copa america in apple tv

Youtube is broadcasting all Copa America games in HD in the url http://youtube.com/copaamerica, however apple TV cannot read that stream for some reason.
Also, safari or youtube mobile can only send audio to the Apple TV with Airplay making impossible to watch it outside the iphone, ipod touch, pc/mac, or Ipad.

Here a workaround to watch the games in your TV with an Ipad, Airplay and Apple TV.

1) you will need an application called icab mobile, ($1,99) it is a special browser with the ability to send airplay video signals to aplpe tv. here the link of the itunes store http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/icab-mobile-web-browser/id308111628?mt=8

2) once downloaded icab mobile, start icab mobile , go to configuration, modules and change the airplay option to load automatically, then restart the application.

3) within icab mobile enter URL http://youtube.com/copaamerica, select live video and enjoy watching it in HD to your apple TV !

the following steps helped my to solve the problem.

– Quit Plex
– Quit Plex Media Server (that’s the ‘>’ icon in your Mac’s top menu bar)
– Delete the following files:

~/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-Ins/Framework.bundle
~/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-Ins/System.bundle

(‘~’ is your user account name)

Once these 2 files have been deleted, start Plex server.

open safari and enter http://localhost:32400/system/:/prefs/set?AS_BETA=1

go to Plex On-line — more — check for updates.. and install all the available updates.

installed the ffmpeg plugin in my macbook Pro:

curl http://ambertation.de/downloads/PLEX/ffmpeg > ~/Downloads/ffmpeg
cp ~/Downloads/ffmpeg ~/Library/Application\ Support/Plex/Plex\ Media\ Server.app/Contents/Resources/

restart plex server one more time.

restart apple tv

connect apple tv to plex server and watch the videos.
