Hi,


I try to be more specific with my poor english.


Steps:


  1. With handbrake and my expensive imac, I convert a dvd to a m4v file by choosing the specific format for ipad
  2. I copy the .m4v to the ipad2 by using the media explorer of AVPLAYER-HD
  3. On my Ipad I select a movie and click on the icon apple TV
  4. On the screen of the main TV, I can hear the audio but no video.



Regards

It's not fully clear but there are 3 possibilities.


i) You should place video in iTunes for syncing to the iPad, iTunes on the iPad is video airplay enabled, if you've not used iTunes and are using another application it may well not be video airplay enabled.


ii) There is something wrong with your encoding


iii) Airplay isn't working properly, try restarting both the Apple TV and the iPad.
