Streaming rented move wont show

Im so frustrated with my apple TV.
I rent a movie on my Macpro thinking I can stream it to my ATV.
I have a nice dinner, go to watch a movie on my ATV thinking it will stream to my
ATV and RENTED MOVIES doesnt even show up on my menu.

My mac is on.
My itunes is open.
My RENTED MOVIES is there in iTunes.
My ATV is there displayed on my iTunes.
No RENTED MOVIES are on my menu of my ATV - WHY?

Mac Pro Quad Core 3.0, Mac OS X (10.5.5), 2 GB Ram

...you cannot drag and drop the rental....


You can to an iPod touch or iPhone. I seem to recall doing it once with my ATV.

In any case, you can't just sync a rental movie that was purchased from iTunes on a computer to an ATV. If dragging and dropping doesn't work, the OP may have to right-click on the movie in iTunes and select the option to transfer it from the popup menu.
