Part 1: Reasons Why We Can\u2019t Directly Stream iTunes Videos to Xbox<\/h2>\n
Xbox is a video gaming brand from Microsoft, and until now, several generations of the Xbox have been made. The 2013 release of the Xbox One marked the third generation of Microsoft's home gaming console. With the software giant so firmly established in the console landscape, it is hard to imagine that there was a time when many believed that the Xbox project was doomed to failure. Microsoft’s aim with the Xbox was to make it become an all-in-one entertainment system for every family. Given that the Xbox is a pretty good game console as well as a very powerful media player which can play Blu-ray movies and stream videos online, people often wonder why it is not possible to stream iTunes movies on the platform. As was briefly said above, Apple’s iTunes movies will come in the M4V video format. Even though the native Xbox Media Player supports a wide variety of video formats like MKV, MOV, DivX, ASF and many more, it cannot support M4V videos. iTunes videos are also strictly DRM protected, such that they are limited from playing on any other non-Apple devices, which means Xbox one can simply not play them. To play iTunes videos on Xbox, users should strip the DRM protection first, and then convert the iTunes M4V videos to formats that Xbox can readily support. However, we believe that users should enjoy their movies wherever they want, and we will introduce a set of tools you can use to bypass DRM protection, so that you can stream your iTunes movies on Xbox. <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\nPart 2: Convert iTunes Movies to Xbox with Leawo Prof. DRM<\/h2>\n
To watch iTunes movies on Xbox, the most important step is to remove iTunes DRM from the M4V videos. <\/strong>Leawo Prof. DRM<\/a>, formerly known as TunesCopy is an all-in-one DRM removal and converter software suite used to bypass the DRM protection imposed on all iTunes media files. It also bypasses DRM protection on Spotify audio files and eBooks (from Kindle, Kobo and Adobe). The biggest advantage of this software is that it is consistently updated, so that even when new security measures are released, this software will still work. It is available for download on both Windows and Mac OS systems. The steps below apply for Windows and Mac OS<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/a><\/a>
\n <\/span>\n<\/p>\nStep 1: Import your files. Launching the program will show you the main interface which is super easy to use and looks very clean, What you want to do now is to click “Add Files” on the menu bar. To make it easier for you, this program will automatically search and find your iTunes M4V movie files which are not always easy to find especially on Mac OS systems. You can select individual files or simply click “Add All” for the corresponding option. <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\nStep 2: Choose audio tracks or subtitles. Your imported files will now show on the program. Click the edit icon at the right side of each file to select the audio track and the subtitles of your choice. The subtitles can be used if you wish to convert to video. <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\nStep 3: Set your output folder. By default, Leawo Prof. DRM will output the files to its installation directory, which will not be convenient for you when you want to locate your converted files. Click the browse icon, next to the “Output” text-box. If you know, you can even type the directory in the text-box by yourself. <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\nStep 4: Conversion. Once you have finished setting your output directory, click “convert” at the bottom. There are two tabs that is “Converting” and “Converted”. You can see the converted files under the corresponding tab, and you can conveniently open the directory to locate your converted and DRM free MP4 movie files which can be easily played on your Xbox. <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\nPart 3: Convert iTunes Movies to Xbox with Requiem<\/h2>\n
Requiem is another software tool that you can use, but before we start to talk about it, the last version was released a few years ago when iTunes 11 was released. Apple took the developer to the courts, and unfortunately Requiem lost the battle. You can still give it a try since it still works under iTunes 10.7 and lower, and this is also a nice freeware that removes DRM with lossless quality which will be great to play on Xbox. It is available on Mac, Windows as well as Linux platforms.<\/p>\n
Step 1: Download and install Requiem, and make sure you have iTunes 10.7 or lower. Run it, then it will scan your iTunes directory for any protected files and begin to remove the DRM protections.
\nStep 2: Remove DRM. When the DRM removal process is done, Requiem will delete the protected versions of your iTunes videos and replace them with entirely unprotected versions.
\nStep 3: Play the converted movies. Head to your media folder in Windows Explorer and open the converted files with a non-iTunes player to confirm they can work well.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/div>\nPart 4: Convert iTunes Movies to Xbox with DRmare M4V Converter<\/h2>\n
DRmare M4V Converter is similar to Leawo Prof. DRM and Requiem that can also losslessly delete DRM copy from iTunes movie purchases and rentals while converting the iTunes M4V videos to common MP4, MOV, MKV, AVI compatible with any popular device, in this case Xbox. However, this software will set you back a whopping $49.95 (and this price excludes iTunes audio, Spotify, eBook and other modules)\u00a0 and the output profiles on the Windows version are limited. It is available for both Windows and Mac OS. To start, download and install it on your computer.<\/p>\n
Step 1: Add iTunes M4V video(s). Click the 'Add' button at the bottom left to open the file selection window, from where you can select one or multiple files. Alternatively you can drag & drop the videos from iTunes library into the software.
\nStep 2: Set your ouput profile. You can do multiple settings, like customizing the output format, subtitles, and audio tracks. Choose your video quality options from the available list, like lossless MP4 and many more.
\nStep 3: Convert your videos. After customizing the output settings, you can click 'Convert' button at the bottom right to start the conversion. When it finishes, locate the files in the output directory.<\/p>\n - Part 2: Convert iTunes Movies to Xbox with Leawo Prof. DRM<\/a> <\/li>\n
