I just purchased ATV today. I'm excited, but yet frustrated. I have a load of bluray rips on mkv. and i'd like to make them ATV compatible. Does anyone have a windows tutorial? or can help me? i would be so greatly appreciative. thx
 
search has not been my friend. I've been searching for 2 days and haven't come up with a solid solution. IM PULLING MY HAIR OUT. lol

and again. IM ON WINDOWS. alot of the tutorials available are for Mac.
 
mkvextract and mp4box mentioned in the above link are also available for windows. I would love to find something a bit easier to use that is PC based also. I have a quad core PC that blows away my little macbook in encoding speed.
 
Hi folks,

I'm in the same boat. Loving my AppleTV! I've got several 480P DVDs loaded in there now, but I'd love to take my 720P BluRay rips (MKV) and convert them to AppleTV (HD) as well. I've tried everything and just can't get it working.

I know this is a MAC place but surely there's some Windows folks here? :D

(And yes, I know I can convert the MKV to 480P files but that kind of defeats the purpose...I'd like to convert them to fairly high-bitrate 1280x720 AppleTV files.)

Yeah, that's my boat too. I'm running a pair of Q6600 boxes which are perfect for video encoding. I just need some decent Windows tools to do this.

Obviously I'd love to go Mac Pro but I just can't swing the cost right now.
