Since I have purchased and rented tons of movies and TV shows from iTunes store before, I want to play these iTunes videos on my new HD TV. But I met some obstacles when I streamed these files to this TV via Emby Media Server that acts a wonderful streaming media player. Is there anyone who has a perfect solution to stream iTunes movies to TV via Emby Media Server?

Part 2. Best iTunes to Emby Converter – Bypass DRM Protection from iTunes M4V Videos

Emby Media Server provides users a simple way to convert personal videos to portable devices, which allows you to access the latest movies and TV shows, also including Live TV.

However, since there is no iTunes application on Emby Server, you are not able to stream iTunes digital files to any devices with Emby Media Server. The other thing you should keep in mind is that iTunes videos are encrypted with Apple's FariPlay DRM copyright technology, which limits iTunes customers to enjoy iTunes video files on non-Apple devices and media players. For the purpose of making iTunes movies playable on Emby Server, you need to remove DRM protection from iTunes protected videos and convert iTunes M4V to common videos.

Because most of us are newbie in the field of getting rid of DRM limitation from movies and TV shows purchased and rented from iTunes, we all have no idea about how to break this annoying DRM cracker by ourselves. At this time, an excellent iTunes DRM removal tool is a smart choice for you to strip DRM protection.

Here, we highly recommend DRmare M4V Converter for Mac/Windows, an all-in-on iTunes DRM M4V converter.
