I have a question regarding movie art and the Apple TV. I have just spent a few hours downloading movie art for all the movies in my iTunes library. I was very excited to get the proper art downloaded and finally get rid of the default art iTunes uses when you import a movie file (I guess it uses the first frame of the movie as the art work). Anyway, when I opened my movie selection in Apple TV none of the movie art was updated to the newly downloaded art. Still only displayed the old art. What do I need to do to get Apple TV to see the new art work?
 
Just checking on your procedure...

You right-clicked on each movie, chose 'Get Info'...went to the 'Artwork' tab and added it there?
 
Yes, that is how I updated the artwork.

Lol I hate that too wi the artwork no updating, just pull the power cord, and when the atv restarts it will work. I tired pressing the home button to turn it of and on but that doesn't work. The power cord thing works.

Edit: the above explanation is for the scanerio in which your computer displays the correct artwork but the AppleTV doesn't. After unplugging the AppleTV from it's power source it will work.

Thanks
AE
