Hi guys,
I'm trying to figure out the optimal encoding options for h264 video in 720p, that will play flawlessly on AppleTV2/XBMC.
So far I've tried with various x264 presets (such as fast, slow, slower), various x264 tunes (such as fastdecode) and various different profiles (such as Base, Main, High3.1, High4.1), but all seem just a slight bit juddery (some more than others of course). I've also tried HandBrake with the AppleTV2 profile, but that doesn't help much either.
It's entirely possible, that I've already tried the optimal settings and the cause for my judder issues should actually be found somewhere else.
What would be a "known good" set of x264 options for encoding 720p material in high quality, that the AppleTV2 will(or at least should) play flawlessly?
Currently I'm running the 20110913 nightly.
Thanks in advance.
