Hello.
I've tried a few upscaling settings on my AppleTV XBMC but all of them have resulted in unresponsive sluggishness in playback. Is upscaling on the AppleTV impossible or can I make it work somehow?
Thanks.

Software upscaling is currently not recommended on the Apple TV, especially if your output is 720p or higher.
The good news however is that the Apple TV has an nVidia 7300, which means it will benefit from hardware accelerated upscaling shaders, of which there is currently one, the bicubic upscaler. Note however, that the hardware accelerated upscalers are work in progress and haven't been tested at all on the Apple TV, so it may not work as expected.

One question I'd like to add: Is there any way of testing this upscaler in my XBMC installation now?
