Airplay slow with Macbook, fine with iPhone?

Just purchased an Apple TV and I've been toying around with Airplay. The issue I'm having is streaming a video from iTunes on my Macbook Pro (mid-2010) to the Apple TV - when I use my Macbook as the source, the stream will freeze/lag pretty regularly, enough that it isn't really watchable. Same file when streamed from my iPhone is flawless. What do?

That is a great question, I hope this information helps.

If you have tried all these and you are still having problems take it to an Apple Store, or an authorized service provider. If you are within your manufacturer warranty period they may be able to exchange the defective charger, adapter, cable, or unit (it depends on what is actually causing the charging issue.)
