Apple TV preset & Lord Of The Rings Problem

Post by kultschar »

Hi

As a newbie/non techie I love the built in Apple TV preset however I haev come across a problem when encoding LOTRs _ Return Of The King DVD. The file goes slightly over 4GB!!

Is there a way to solve this whilst keeping the Apple TV preset quality???

Shouldnt be an issue since it should be using 64 bit mp4 (should show as checked). If not, make sure you have updated your built in presets.

I thought the AppleTV couldn't play 64-bit files. Is that just streaming?

actually, since atv 2.0 it can even stream them. 1.0 + could always play them if synced.

Awesome!!!

I'm guessing that the iPhone doesn't support it though??
