Greetings! I have an Apple TV 4K, with the latest software, and my MBP has the latest software, and every time I try to play a movie I purchased on iTunes or TV app I get the following error: This content can't be played on this Apple TV. I have tried disabling quick start. The movies I have ripped from DVD all play fine. Any suggestions?

Thank you for your time.
 
Have you reauthorised your MacBook Pro?

The reason why I ask is that I fitted a new SSD to my MacBook last week and did a complete TimeMachine transfer to the new SSD - which worked amazing - the Apple software guys are geniuses :)

Anyway, when it came to Apple HomeSharing of bought iTunes film, I got the same message.
I reauthorised the MacBook in iTunes and everything was perfect.
