It looks like we were blind-sided a little by the iPad 3 events, because Apple had something more for us, like the latest iteration of Apple TV 2012, which looks and acts exactly like the previous model. That difference is its support for native 1080p video, as streamed from iTunes, over the Internet, or via AirPlay from a third-generation iPad. Yeah, you can stream 1080p HD movies and TV shows your buy on the iTunes store for enjoying on your 65-inch HDTV. With proper Blu-ray ripper software, you can even back up Blu-ray Discs and DVDs into Apple TV 3 optimized HD videos without much quality loss. If you'd like to stream Blu-ray and DVD collections to new Apple TV 3, Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper for Apple TV should be your best choice.

Pavtube Blu-ray Ripper comes up with new Apple TV 3 1080p preset in its latest update, letting you convert Blu-ray to Full HD 1080p M4V video that looks even sharper than iTunes store 1080p movies. Better off, the new preset exports HD video with 2 audio tracks- both Dolby Digital 5.1 and AAC stereo audio will be retained, so that Apple TV could pass-through Dolby Digital to A/V receiver for reproduction of surround sound, and export AAC stereo when going without surround sound system. This article aims to guide you through Blu-ray to Apple TV 3 conversion.

Other You May Concern

No. iTunes does not play video contents with AC3 audio, but the Apple TV pass-through presets create video with both AC3 and AAC, so iTunes will find and play the AAC track instead.

2. Does the Apple TV 3 Dolby Digital Pass-through 1920x1080 (*.m4v) preset work with iPad?
Yes. The preset also work with new iPad. It plays stereo by default. If you'd like to play surround sound effect, enable Airplay to have iPad stream the video to Apple TV 3, which pass-through AC3 audio to receiver.
