New to the forum and XBMC! Just installed the latest version of XBMC on my Apple TV (Original Silver) running 3.0.2 using ATV USB Creator. All went well and I was able to play content from my NAS a My Book Live. All SD video files (mp4,avi,m4v) play fine. But I am having problems with any .mkv files. They play but the video is VERY choppy and slow. To eliminate the NAS as being my problem I copied an mkv file directly to the hard drive of my Apple TV and got the same playback results.
I also downloaded the latest Beta version of XBMC 11 Eden RC2 and tried playing back an mkv file, again from the Apple TV hard drive. Same result, VERY choppy and slow playback.
I REALLY like the XBMC interface and use my Apple TV for Pictures and Music and would love to be able to include HD (mkv) movie playback.
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated !
