playing 60 fps mkv on ATV2?

jd2157 · 2012-02-29 01:49

So just to be clear, we shouldn't expect any 720p video at 60 fps to play without syncing issues on the atv2 because of inadequate hardware (and/or lack of hardware documentation)? Just trying to figure out if the issue is open, closed or undetermined. The ticket still looks open but no activity in 3 months.

For example, on my atv2 running Eden rc1 and Apple TV 4.4.4, this file won't play without sync issues (even when copied local to the atv2).
EDIT: I did create a new guisettings.xml and update the latency delay in advancedsettings.xml to 0 but the audio and video still aren't synced.

Thanks, very clear now Smile

Hopefully March 7 will bring a solution that's easily jailbroken... let's all pray together.

This is what I'm really hoping for in the AppleTV3 box:

$99 Price
1080p capable at 23.976, 24, 25, 29.97, and 59.94 fps
fast enough for realtime advanced deinterlacing (2x) 60Hz - making it usable as a HD MythTV frontend using the MythBox plugin

Closing thread before it turns into an atv hardware discussion. Memphiz makes it clear, atv2 won't do 720p at 60 fps... case closed.
