I transfer videos from iMovie to iTunes for viewing on Apple TV. iMovie used to transfer as mpeg-4 file so it could be viewed on Apple TV straight away. Now it transfers it as Quicktime and I have to convert it to apple tv in iTunes. Is there a setting I can change so that it automatically transfers it as mpeg-4.😕
In iMovie, click Share>Export and then select medium or large as these filetypes appear to be compatible with TV. Are you doing this and still having a problem?
Hi applefandan
Thanks very much for your response. Very much appreciated. I always export as HD720 or HD1080. I just looked and noticed that these are not compatible with apple tv, which is very strange. I thought Apple TV supported these?
Yea, it is a little strange. You'd think that an apple tv would support hd. Try exporting it as one of those. How does the file look on the tv? If it looks like too poor a quality you can always export as hd and then convert the file like you have been doing.
