I still see AirPlay as an option on 8.2 and 8,3, but I don't see anything lost at all.

I've got the atv3, iPad mini and iPhone 6 (had a 5 ) they are on 8.1.1 all running on 5ghz, and I don't have a problem with AirPlay, video is always fine, I will say sometimes it takes a while to start playing but that's it, my laptops on 2.4ghz sometimes stops, but I think that's down to my router, my Xbox decides to throw the connection and that's in the same room (cable sorted that) maybe check the signal strength on the atv3 (I don't know if you can, as I've never looked for it )

The issue of boiling device especially iPhone 6 and is always hanging when trying to switch between pages need to be looked into.

What about all the landscape/portrait issues on the iPhone 6 Plus. This needs a fix too!!!
