Hi there.

Can someone based on his experience advise me on a skin that will work with no lagging, freezing and so on on my ATV2 with the latest nightly build? I've tried "Aeon MQ 2" and although its a great skin, it requires too much resources of my poor ATV2 (slow, freezes sometimes)...
Thanks!

fastest one for ATV2 is Slik...

I myself am running Aeon Nox at the moment on my 2xATV's, but i've tried Showmix, which is very heavy but just looks soooooo good...and I think when v3 of Showmix comes out, i'll just switch to that and live with it being a little slower...

I like Quartz

- I just had a look at SLiK, it looks great and is very fast (on my laptop), but I miss basic features like hiding things in the main menu.

Try backrow or reFocus if using nightlies. Both of them are not heavy on resources. If using Dharma, Xeebo &Fusion is great. Xeebo is super and lightweight, as many users are saying.
