How can I view iTunes Movies on my Samsung TV

Post by snoogle » Sun Mar 06, 2011 12:12 pm

I use a Samsung LCD TV with Internet connection and Twonky to my audio files and display images on TV. Unfortunately, that still does not work with videos that I purchased through the iTunes store. While I can stream all the other videos, but not from iTunes, whether rented or purchased.

I want to make sure that I buy or rent videos in the future through iTunes and then can transmit using Twonky on the network.

I use the Twonky media server on a MacBook Pro with the latest Snow Leopard.

The network is set up as follows:
- MacBook is available in the 2nd Stock and WLAN with an Apple Airport Extreme connected
- Apple Airport Extreme is connected with devolo link on the grid with a Vodafone Easybox 803 in floor
- the Samsung LCD TV is connected via WiFi Stick to the network

The connection works in themselves, that is, Twonky is displayed on the TV. I can not just watch movies.

I use Twonky Media Server 6.0.28

You can't. iTunes videos have DRM protection which your TV cannot play and Twonky cannot remove.
