Star Trek Into Darkness playback issue on Apple TV

Purchased this last night on my Mac. Synced to my three Apple TVs. I thought it was odd when it first started I was greeted with a still frame and a selection screen: United States, Mexico, Brasil. I selected United States and off the movie went and played. I got about halfway through and shut the unit down and went to sleep.


I go to finish it today and all I can get is that country selection screen. Picking any country takes me to a black screen and then nothing.


All three Apple TVs behave this way.


I can watch it on my computer where the screen with all the features shows up like extras, chapter selection and play.


I've tried deleting and resyncing this to the Apple TV (and it's copying the movie and the extras file) with no change.


So what's the fix?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

I bought the movie and while it waws downloading I had no problem watching the film without interruption. Then next day I tried watching the movie and would get the three country screen, I selected US and then nothing. After a while the screen saver would come on. I rebooted and rebooted again. Still the same thing. So I decided to see if I could watch it on my Iphone. Using the Apple TV remote app I went over to movies selected Star Trek Into Darkness and guess what happened, it played on my TV. Don't know if this will help. Good Luck
