Converting/Importing Harry Potter series films Blu-ray and DVD into iTunes for Apple TV 3 streaming

1. After installing, launch the Blu-ray Converter app on your Mac. and then press "Load Disc" icon to import Blu-ray and DVD movie. Choose "File > Load from ISO/IFO" if you'd like to import Blu-ray and DVD ISO image file.

2. Choose output profile. You can easily find several optimized profiles for Apple TV 3 under "Apple TV" category. Here I recommend you select "Apple TV 3 1080P Dolby Digital Pass-through(.m4v)" which works well for ATV 3 while maintaining 5.1 surround. To get acompatible format for iTunes, you can choose HD MP4, M4V and MOV format.

Tip: You can click "settings" to change the setting from the new default HD profile 4000 to 5000~8000 bitrate (Note: bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss). Learn how to set up Apple TV for Dolby Digital 5.1 pass-through.

P.S. The key setting Video Size for your Apple TV is according to your source video exactly. If your source video is in 1080p such as Blu-ray, you can set your video size in 1920*1080 in H.264 codec; while, if your original video size is in standard, 720p in enough. For example, to play DVD on the Apple TV 3, 720*480 video size with 4000~6000kbps bitrate is enough due to the DVD movies' native resolution.

3. Press "Convert" to start converting Harry Potter series Blu-ray and DVD to Apple TV 3 MP4 videos with Dobly 5.1 audio under Mac OS X. The windows workflow is here. Wait till conversion completes. Then press "Open" to find the ripped movie.
