Yes you can. You need to "sync" them to the Apple TV via iTunes, so you have to first copy the files to wherever your iTunes sources are. As far as DVD conversion formats, use "Apple TV" settings. Also, EyeTV allows you to export all of your live HDTV source recordings to Apple TV format. Despite the negative reviews here, there is an unlimited source of digital media files that will play on Apple TV!

You can, but keep in mind that many commercially released VHS tapes were manufactured with "copy guard" protection that prevents copying. You can't copy those. If you are going to copy non-protected tapes such as those you recorded off of TV, you should have no problem.

The roku uses programs like Netflix and Hulu to stream TV shows and movies; therefore, there is no need for you to store them locally. If you were to purchase 500 - 1000 movies and episodes from amazon or iTunes and download them, you would need more than a 1 TB drive.

they will play off of the device but with buffering. best solution would be to transfer movies that you want to watch, then delete when done.this device is worth every penny. my primary use is to shoot pictures and video during the day on iPad and cross load at night. ready to go again next day. keeps iPad memory clear and potential unlimited storage on SD cards. power independent once it is charged. three weeks of video all kept safe.

Yes but you have to add the movies to your iTunes library first, although the movies can be stored on the Time Capsule. iTunes only allows m4v format for movies so if they are not m4v (basically mp4) you would need to convert the file in order to add it to your library. There numerous articles on the internet and youtube on how to accomplish this. There are also other more involved ways to do it.

I am wondering something similar. Can this be used to store the iTunes library to be accessed with Apple TV (then sent through the A/V receiver?)

Yes. Video can be played back on all typical video players on Mac or PC. the videos are standard video files.

I think this is a double question, I don't have an "Apple TV box", Yes You can open music and photographs in iTunes on an iMac or iPad, opening them up on an "Apple TV box" I do not know if that is possible to stream data since I do not have one of those.

I'm a big fan of my iPod touch as well (in fact, I'm typing this on mine right now). To download movies or TV shows, I normally just use iTunes. It's not only easy, but it's also legal. Paying two dollars per episode is outrageous for some, but I don't mind because of the ease and convenience...Just my two cents :-)

no, and it doesnt really work either, you can't play the itunes movies on your tv with it, you can use flixter but it will be a very small part of your tv,

No, u can just stream it. U do have the option to download it if u like. I chose this Media share device because of the RJ45 connecter option & the app, one of the better for these types of devices. Great device!

I hate mp4 format...I agree completely; that's the one thing that has kept me from buying any Apple device...I don't want everything in my audio library converted and not be able to play it on other systems. This is proprietary warfare and I'm not bowing down to Apple...

I've been able to play movies from the store. As long as your iPod, iPad, or iPhone can play it you are good.

I would think you can, since I've down loaded some programs--I planned to try, but my video just went bad-----That's what one get for buying used---I'm not as familiar with Mac as with Windows or Linux, Good Luck

No you shouldn't as it records them as separate mp4 files (I think it's mp4). You tell it where to store the files so you can back them up if preferred.

No, it doesn't. the reason is because those "Digital Copies" you get from blu rays are copy protected by apple to only play in your itunes player to devices that are "authorized" by your itunes account. it will play m4v's, just not copy protected ones. to be sure though i just tried it and no.. it didn't work. but it did play an m4v i have that isn't copy protected.

It reads and writes Blu-Ray just live DVD. To copy, I'm assuming you mean rip, it would depend on software compatibility and protections placed on the disk itself. For example, you could easily copy information over from an unprotected data disk but probably would not be successful trying to rip a copyrighted movie, but then I've never tried.
