Hey

I have an Apple TV 160gb and upto now think its brill. Its got a few purchased movies on there, a few home made DVDRips with Handbrake - these all play perfect as you would imagine.

However, I have all 3 LOTR movies in 1080p with 5.1 sound, I now these wouldnt play so I ran them through VisualHub - Took forever but what I got out was full 720p with 5.1 + Stero. Each movie is 8gb to 9gb.

Added these to iTunes and tagged them all etc etc, and tested them on the AppleTV - They played fine, only took a few minutes to load. After this I went ahead and sync'ed them onto the AppleTV and now they wont play? Say it doesnt recognize the format?

Why will it stream play but not play once sync'ed?

Many Thanks
