Hey, so I just bought an Apple TV and have been to converting my DVD's for viewing. I've been using these settings:
File Format: MP4 File
Codec: AVC/H.264 Video / AAC Audio
Framerate: Same as source
Encoder: x264 (h.264 Main)
2-Pass Encoding: On
Average Bitrate: 1800
Anamorphic: Tried both On and Off
The problem I am having is with darker blacks in the picture, they always seem to look pixelated or distorted?
My question is: does anyone know how to get the black levels to look better, or does anyone have optimum settings for ripping a DVD to Apple TV
Thanks,
Dan

3000 is fine with me!!
Got another question tho:
Earlier I made this comparsion, I converted "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Mans Chest" from a DVD at 1500 kbps and the file is 1.85 GB, I went on the iTunes Store and looked up that movie and there file is 1.73 GB.
Is there file of lower quality, or are they using a different image size or something? Last question is, does anyone know the specs of movies downloaded from the iTMS?
Thanks,
Dan
