We are happy to announce the first release of our new Videora Apple TV Converter. With this software you will be able to convert your many different types of videos into a format that is playable on the Apple TV.

Apple TV Video Codec Support:
MPEG-4: 640 by 480, 30 fps, Simple Profile
H.264: 320 by 240, 30 fps, Baseline profile up to Level 1.3
H.264: 640 by 480, 30 fps, LC version of Baseline Profile
H.264: 1280 by 720, 24 fps, Progressive Main Profile.
The current version of Videora Apple TV Converter already has profiles to convert video into the first three SDTV formats. We are working on profiles that will convert video into the fourth HDTV format but these likely won't be ready until the Apple TV hardware is released and we are able to find out it's exact main profile support.
Just a note, there is absolutely no point in converting low resolution video (say 624x352) to HDTV resolution (1280x720). Such a conversion does NOT create sharper video, it just scales the video up and takes a lot longer to convert. The Apple TV hardware should have a high quality video scaler and will be able to do this itself. Time will tell whether the Apple TV will provide a better quality upconversion
