I can't find my downloaded film rental

Hello GAWfoot,

Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with the movies rented on your Apple TV. I am sure you are eager to watch these movies, and I found a few resources that I think will help.

The first to verify is if you see the movie on the top shelf of the Movies panel on the Apple TV and then checking Settings to see if the download was interrupted in:

You can see all the movies you have rented on the top shelf of the main menu when navigating to Movies. Rented Movies will also indicate when they are due to expire. Once expired, they will no longer be available in your Movies shelf.

If your download is interrupted, go to Setting > iTunes Store and select Check for Rentals. Apple TV will connect with the iTunes Store and will resume downloading.
