Hi every one and thank's for helping this newbie. First, let me start by telling you that i'm faily new with Final Cut Pro and i just recently bought my Apple Tv. What i'm trying to do is simple (so i tought) I want to convert/export my Final Cut pro movies to my Apple TV. I tried with Compressor and with Quick Time (not pro) with no success. I can watch the movies in iTunes but my Apple TV won't see them. What am i doing wrong? I tried different setting and nothing works. Maybe i should also tell you that i'm filming in HDV with my Sony HC1. Thank's in advance for all your help.
Got a tip for us?
