i have some content in iTunes 11 and have set it to the new "home videos" category.
how do i see this on the appletv? doesn't appear to be an option to see them.
You should be able to find your 'home movies' on the AppleTV by scrolling to the top and sliding over to Genre.
Best of luck!
You make "home videos" that are comedies, drama's, horror, etc? Most of mine are the kid laying on the floor slobbering.that's a workaround though, not a positive solution.
what if the "genre" is comedy, it's going to be in amongst all the movies that also have comedy as the genre.

It's just that all my "Home Movies" are truly that "Home Movies", and so the "Home Movies" genre fits. I don't have Home Movies-Comedy, Home Movies-Drama, etc. However, to your point, I would love to see the aTV menu reflect the same categories Music, Movies, Home Movies, TV Shows as iTunes provides. It's just demonstrates good integration between the 2 systems.so which genre would that fall into then? "kids & family"? as i have various proper movies that fall into that genre too.
as i said, accessing them via the genre listing is a workaround, it can't be deemed a proper way of accessing them.
it seems the appletv engineers forgot to liase with itunes engineers (as usual).
If it really was the case that someone felt they had multiple Genres of Home Movies, though, there is nothing that would keep them from creating Genres called "Home Movies - Comedy", etc., if that is what they want.It's just that all my "Home Movies" are truly that "Home Movies", and so the "Home Movies" genre fits.

Putting Home Movies in their own Genre seems like an appropriate solution to me...but then I always browse movies on my aTV through the Genre listing. Otherwise it would take 5 minutes to scroll through the whole list.
