With Apple TV support... hopefully it will give us some clues as to what iTV will support.
One of the export settings in QT Pro is "Movie to Apple TV"
QuickTime 7.1.5 and iTunes 7.1 released w/ Apple TV Support

The new iTunes has lots of links to Apple's web site for Apple TV info, unfortunately none of the pages are live yet so it's pretty useless.
I've got an 84 mb movie i'm exporting from quicktime to apple tv. Current movie format is:
AAC, Stereo, 44.1 kHz, H2.64, 640x480
FPS: 29.97
Data Rate: 1159.01 kbits/sec
Duration: 10:11.17
Normal size: 640x480.
I'll let you know what it comes out at. As typical for Quicktime, it's damn slow. It'll probably be several hours before it's done.
When you use export to Apple TV there are only default settings, no options.

It's not the same as the iPod high setting. If you convert a DVD file (720x404 in my case, original mpeg2 datarate of 5400 kbs) to iPod it comes out as a h264 .m4v file of 640x359 with a bitrate of 1660 kbs. When you export for AppleTV it comes out as a 720x404 file with a bitrate of 2400 kbs, which is a much better format for converting your DVD files, if you're not interested in iPod compatibility. Audio is converted to AAC stereo, off course.
