Thanks for all the suggestions...was hoping that there would an easy fix, but alas will have to burn and pop into DVD player.

AAR.oner - Thanks and I will look into handbrake

pawel - when I drag and drop into itunes any of my (TTD) video files (no mater what the extention is) it is not recognized. Not a big deal as the Apple TV was not initially intended for my personal video habits..heh

Any other sggestions would be appreciated!
