How do i play a home video in iTunes using apple tv

I have imported an mp4 into iTunes and it appears in the home video section under movies.  I cannot seem to find it on my Apple TV though.
To problem solve, I first created a new version of the video by going to file > create new version > create version for apple tv
The new version appeared next to the original, but still will not appear using my apple tv. I am trying to play this video on my home tv, but not having any luck. 
Suggestions?

You would be accessing the Computers icon - Movies - Home Movies.
If it doesn't appear, make sure it is compatible (see below)
H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High or Main Profile level 4.0 or lower, Baseline profile level 3.0 or lower with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format

  • Having a party - How can we play music from other people iPhones using apple tv?

    We are having a party and want people to be able to play music from their own iphones/ipods using our apple tv. is this possible?

    either mirror the iphone on to your apple tv or when they are logged into your internet via wifi. If they open their Itunes, the airplay button should appear for them. Just make sure they are connected to your network.

  • When playing a home video DVD using DVD Player I tried to use the "Controls, Use current frame as jacket picture" facility to create a printable image but with no success. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

    When playing a home video DVD (created on my Panasonic DVD/Hard Disc recorder)  using the Mac DVD Player, I tried to use the "Controls, Use current frame as jacket picture" facility to create a printable image but with no success. I assume that any file created by this action would be stored somewhere in a common format but cannot find any such file. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

    Hi Sinious,
    Interesting to know about 10.8 and Flash. I'll hold off upgrading until they work together. Currently using 10.6.8 at home and same on the Universtity's computers.
    Haven't verified on Windows but shall do later in the week if I can get access to a Windows machine.
    Both the Flash player and the Projector come up not full screen, and if I leave it that way then things work OK as long as I don't make the video full screen (using the full screen button on the skin).
    However if I make the swf or projector full-screen (by using CMD-F or the menu option) then when I click on the menu item to take me to the page with the video on it, instead of a page with a smallish video and back button I get a black screen with no obvious controls. If I then press Escape I get my normal screen back and I am in the page that should have the video but there is not video and the back button does not work. So something wierd is going on here.
    If I make a file without any videos with a similar navigation structure everyting works ok except that when I go full screen I lose the finger cursor when I roll over my buttons (which is also wierd).

  • Import home videos onto ITunes

    How can i import my home videos/ DVDs onto Itunes just as you can import your audio CDs onto Itunes?

    I had home videos that were sat in my iTunes library no problem but I couldn't get them across to my iPhone, even putting them in their own playlist, ticking all the right tabs in the synch menu etc. After a lot of playing around I found that if you right click on the video, select Get Info, go to Options and then in 'Media Kind', manually change it to Music Video and it will then happily go into the music videos playlist and will synch straight across.
    Hope this helps.

  • I am trying to get a good copy of my home video on DVD using IDVD.  On editing the video all the viewing screens show the video perfectly in HD.  When I burn the video to DVD all the end results are buzzy with squiggly lines.  Any fix?  Thanks?

    Hi
    There are several layers to this Q
    A. There are no HD in DVD - DVD is as standard only SD-Video what ever tools used to produce it !
    iDVD or DVD-Studio Pro or Roxio Toast™ - will only make SD-Video on DVD
    B. DVD can be better or worse
    • Using "Share to iDVD" is no good way - Better is Share to Media Browser and as Large (NOT HD as result will be worse)
    • Using iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - are not tools to chose if highes quality is of importance - iMovie up to HD6 or FinalCut any version is far better as they send over all lines to iDVD and not only every second one.
    • Using Right encoder quality depending on movie and Manu duration is very important
    • Use of high quality brand of DVD - is important - I use Verbatim DVD-R
    • Type of DVD - DVD-R plays on more DVD-Players (even old ones)
    • Burn speed - I set it down to x4 - resulting in less burn errors - plays on more players
    • I secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up Mac OS hard disk as iDVD and Mac OS needs this and it can not be taked from other hard disks - has to be here.
    • What You feed iDVD does matter
    Video codecs
    Audio file formats
    Photo file formats

  • Cannot drag & drop clip in Home Video of itune 11.1.3.8

    It has been a few months since I last drop video clip onto the itune and then transfer it to my iphone by clicking the Sync button.
    Today, when I tried to drop more clips into my Home Videos under the Movies to transfer to my iphone, I NO LONGER able to do so because, when  I tried to drag clip over the itunes, the cursor icon immediately changes to a "do not enter" (i.e. a line across a circle) as soon as the cursor is over the itunes appl. 
    I then tried deleting a couple of clips which are currently on my iphone (Home Videos on iTunes),  and then tried re-add it back, I faced the same problem.
    PS:  I had recently updated itunes to current verion 11.1.3.8 and I'm runing Windows 7 on my PC.
    Can someone please help and explain to me what is happening ?
    Thanks in adavance,

    Having the same identical type problem with iPod Touch 5th Gen with iTunes. We have updated iOS to 7.0.4  (11B554a) and iTunes to 11.1.3.8.
    We have tried the same steps as you have. I am just sorry SJ is no longer with us. My mistake is doing software upgrades early should have waited at least 9 months, My Bad, as the sayings go.
    Was going to buy another iPod Touch for my husband but maybe should forget that, it is apparent that Apple needs to hire a few people who know how to test software.

  • HT1349 My iPad will not play music or videos in iTunes or my music app what do I need to do to fix this?

    My iPad will not play music or videos in iTunes or my music app what do I need to do to fix this?

    Music plays in the Music app - not iTunes. Videos play in the Videos App - not in the Music App. Is that what you are doing? If you are using the correct apps for the appropriate content - quit the apps and restart.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • HT1689 How can I play podcasts on my iphone without using data?

    How can I play podcasts on my iphone without using data?

    I used to sync my podcasts to my phone individually, but found out that the Podcast app works better for me.  It continously downloads the podcasts (not really sure when, that's the only thing, when its downloading it may use data depending on where you are) and also deletes the ones i have listened to.  Hopefully that will help you out!
