I stream all my content to my appletv from my iMac. I am constantly adding movies and new tv episodes (daily). Whenever I add a movie (or TV episode) I always have to quit iTunes for them to show up on my appletv. Is this the case for everyone else? It never happened before AppleTV 2.0!!!! Is there a way for me to not have to do this??? Thanks.

Just hit the sync now button in iTunes and your new titles should appear on your :apple:TV. (Quitting and restarting iTunes does just this.)

I have the most recent 10 movies sync'd, and I notice that once MetaX gets done copying the file into iTunes, the sync starts automagicly. You might want to select at least one most recent movie to avoid the manual initiation.

I don't have anything synced to my ATV, so when I add a new movie, I just click the sync. Nothing gets moved over and the new movies show up on the ATV.
