As the title says, I've got a 720p Movie, it plays fine wirelessly across the network on my MBP running XBMC 11.0

The same file, played from my ATV2, running 11.0 and iOS 4.4.4 stutters and buffers and is unwatchable.

I've provided a log file here: 720p Stutter

I really have no idea where to look for the problem, whether it is a bad file type or whatever, but the MBP plays it fine.

Stupid me. Had a quick look, saw Mpeg 4 and stopped reading

But the bit rate isn't super high and the CPU wasn't showing maxed out. Oh well. Disregard.....
