How To: Export Your Videos to Your Apple TV
Apple has recently shipped their latest product, The Apple TV. This device allows you to play your iTunes and iPhoto content on your television without the hassle of wires and cables. Simply sync the media like you would with an iPod or stream the media off of your computer. The video content on the iTunes Store is near DVD quality with amazing detail and sound, and the format of the video is 640 by 480, which is fine and barley noticeable when comparing the two. One of the great features of the Apple TV is it's ability to play 1280 by 720 videos which is also known as 720p. 720p is one of the many high definition formats available for playing on today's modern TVs. This format is very clear and looks stunning on your TV. Here’s a way to export your videos using QuickTime Pro so that you can play them on your Apple TV in crystal Clear 720p format.
Just to warn you ahead of time, a 90 minute video takes up about 3 gigabytes of hard drive space so plan accordingly. Also be sure to check that you have QuickTime version 7.1.5. Once you have your video, go the the File menu, then Export. Choose Movie to Apple TV in the top pull down box. Once your movie has been exported, simply double click it to import it into iTunes. Now all you have to do is sync or stream it onto your Apple TV to watch your beautiful video shine on the big screen.
This is not the best and cheaper way to do that. Moreover, you cannot use a batch conversion for all your videos.
Use this tip instead:

All your video converted, for FREE.
Actually, you can ‘batch’ convert of a sort in Quicktime Player. Just open another clip and export, open another clip and export, and so on.
Here’s a tip: If you want to get a whole batch of new playlists on your AppleTV, download The Filter and go playlist crazy!
Heres a post about an an application that will allow you to do batch conversions without Quicktime Pro.

Dumb question – will this upconvert (or whatever the term is) non-HD content to 720p, or will it leave the video at its native resolution?
Really useful, I will try it at once.
Here’s my result, it is really good, thanks for sharing!
I think your blog is so nice.So I impressed your beautiful expression.I just bookmarked you¦keep up the good work!!!!

The folks over at Tapbots have released an update to their Twitter client for the iPhone and iPod touch. http://www.itube-stream.de.tl This update adds a couple of useful features. One of these features gives you the ability to add sleep time for its push notifications. This allows you to set a block of time to turn off notifications from Twitter so that you can sleep easy and uninterrupted. Another useful feature is the ability to only receive notifications from people that you follow. Thirdly, have you ever reported a spammer or blocked someone and had to live with the fact that their tweets were still polluting your timeline? http://www.anysim.net Well fret no mo because once you block or spam someone with this new update, their tweets will be automatically removed.
