I am having a strange issue with iTunes.

For the past couple weeks I have been ripping and encoding all my movies so they would work on the Apple TV using handbrake. I imported a couple into iTunes to test them out and make sure they would work. They played just fine and the artwork applied to it showed up. I can't recall if this was the latest version of iTunes or not, but I am pretty sure it was. I was running Vista at the time.

Fast forward to now. Latest iTunes and Windows 7. All the videos that I encoded don't play in iTunes. The progress bar at the top shows the title and the time but doesn't go past 0.00 and doesn't switch to the player. Artwork does not work on the videos no matter how I try to apply it. Videos that I buy from the iTunes store work perfectly fine. Play in iTunes and I can edit the artwork. And all the videos that I encoded with Handbrake and the videos from iTunes all play on the Apple TV just fine.

Not sure if it's an iTunes issue or an issue with my computer or what. But I would really like to have the artwork on the videos as having a nice interface to browse through is one of the reasons I got the Apple TV.
