Hello to all!  

I purchased an Apple TV unit and would like to convert my library of nearly 400 movie titles, formated as Video_TS, to I assume mpeg4 using Crunch. I appears that each movie converts in real time. I would like to recieve near dvd quality, and therefore, have my settings set for Apple TV High. Is there a faster setting that will still deliver dvd quality, but at a much faster speed?

Secondly, what should I set my screen adaptation to? If the movie is already in letterbox format, will I need to choose this format, or do I choose none?

Thanks in advance for any helpful comments.

I recommend ElGato's Turbo.264 hardware encoder.

Does this encoder work on a PC/xp platform?

No it doesn't but I believe there are hardware H.264 encoders for PCs. For example at adstech.com there is an item that looks identical to the Turbo.264 that is for PCs.

Thanks, I'll look in to it. Btw... nice car in your icon. I am restoring a 1955 Jaguar XK140MC. Lots of fun.
