If you have the divx/perian/flip4mac codecs installed, does that mean you can import the video into iTunes?

Which codecs does the Apple TV support?

Does the resolution of the video matter when streaming to Apple TV?

Apple - Apple TV - Tech Specs

Basically, no. Only MP4/H.264 supported. No issues with streaming [so far], as long as the file is within specs.

so does this mean that everyone who has a bunch of divx files can't stream them onto the appletv? what are the options? Handbrake? ViddyUp?

I'm exporting a 42 minute show right now and it's taking more than an hour on a 24" iMac
