Not able to upload videos

Hi there please can someone assist me as I am getting an error message every time I try to upload a video

Great little app

Does what it says. I had 4k content i recorded that I wanted to play on my ATV as a screensaver. While this app cannot let you add the screensaver to the AppleTV auto playing screensaver, you need to manually initiate it but it’s solid

Broke

Not sure what’s wrong but after a short video is uploaded, showing the cloud symbol, nothing happens. Using an iPad mini

Cool concept buggy

Every video I upload has the same thumbnail showing on the app and the Apple TV

Response from developer

Hello, I am sorry for the issues! If you are interested, you can try the new version 2.0, which has significant changes how syncing between iOS and Apple TV works.

Best TV Screensaver Ever

I have over a hundred videos from :10 to 3:00 running on shuffle ands it’s such a great way to recall the sights ands sounds of memories. We alternate screensavers in our Apple TV between the videos in this app and our Favorites folder in Photos.

Save your favourite videos on the Apple TV itself

The only app I know of that will store videos on the Apple TV itself and can play without downloading (after the first play). Suitable for screensaver videos or viewing your favourite memory videos (not full length movies). They must first be copied to the same app on your phone or iPad from the Photos app and unfortunately take up space there too so it’s not for big collections.

Hello, thanks for the review. Although the videos are copied into the app (otherwise the upload wouldn't be possible), the app clears them from the iPhone/iPad later on, so they shouldn't be taking up any space. If you are noticing high storage usage on your mobile device, please get in touch. Best, Filip

Top!!!👍

Tolle App, sowas habe ich schon länger gesucht.

I can now loop my drone videos on Apple TV 4K

This app is great! It allows me to loop my aerial drone videos to my large screen tv through my Apple TV 4K. I upload the videos to my iCloud account using the Chill Zones app on my iPad. Then after downloading the Chill Zones app on the ATV, I just click on it and select which video I want to watch, click on the repeat icon and sit back and enjoy!

I was having an issue of my videos not loading on the ATV app with tvOS 17.4, just an endless spinning gear. I contacted Filip, the developer, by email and he was so incredibly helpful in troubleshooting the problem. He updated the app today and it now works perfectly. Outstanding customer support!

It great

Please do updates with the ability to create separate folders and shuffle those playlists

Response from developer

Hello, I am sorry for the issues! The newest version should help with this - it will regularly clear old video files from the device to not take so much space.

Thank you

Helpful app, thank you

Gut aber braucht WLAN

Dort wo ich es einsetzen wollte habe ich kein Internet gehabt aber man braucht Internet damit die Videos laden.

Almost exactly what I wanted

Great app but iPhone app crashes often. I wish the corresponding Apple TV app had volume/mute settings. Also wish Apple TV app could delete downloaded videos; need to delete the app to do that, then reinstall app and re-upload videos I want to keep. Some videos that play fine everywhere and even look fine in iPhone app preview play all washed out on Appke TV.

Cool app

So far so good.

It’s handy but

It does strange things with the memory on all of my phones

Awesome

Thanks so much to this creator! It makes it possible to use video as a screensaver or wallpaper on Apple TV. I use this for my business as a graphic display. Love it!

iPad app freezes

When I attempt to upload a video on the iPad app, the app freezes with the “compressing video” dialog. It never goes beyond that. I let it sit for over an hour for a 23 second video. It just sat there.

Custom Apple Like Screen Savers

I have the ability to use my personal footage on a loop, similarly to Apples preset scenic screen savers. I have a library of drone footage I can now display.
App works flawlessly. Can’t recommend it more.

Simple and powerful

What a fantastic app. If you need a way to loop video on the Apple TV this is the app. Simple an efficient. You will need to be logged in on the same iCloud account on the Apple TV and the iPhone/iPad that loads the videos - this is iCloud and not the store as the videos are stored on your iCloud account. Again fantastic utility.

I Loop My Drone Video Using This and Apple 4K TV

As a professional photographer I can say this app is outstanding. I use it via an iPad 4th Gen and usb to iPad card reader and Apple 4K TV dongle. I open my drone video tapping iPad folder then SD card icon. Then I locate drone footage I want and export to iMovie. Then I “save” it while in iMovie which results in drone footage being saved in iPAd “Photos”. (That last one was the important step). Sometimes it can take many minutes to upload. Now I go to Chill Zones app and select the same movie in Photos, name it, then upload it to the Cloud using Chill Zones app. Finally I go in to Apple 4K TV menu and Open Chill zones app, and select the drone footage to loop on my big flat screen tv. Viola!
