i allready have probs with some 720p files, so this would be great instead of getting another player, because in my eyes, none of them has such a great feature set like the xbmc

The CrystalHD stuff isn't ready for prime time. That's not a problem, and it hasn't been sold as such by the developers, but it needs to be known. It's buggy, it crashes, it needs constant re-compiling to build in new changes, etc. It doesn't "just work" yet.
If you're one that likes that sort of thing (and don't need your ATV to work 100%) you're in for a treat. It's capabilities are very impressive and when it's done it'll do amazing things to this project (mainly because the hardware requirements will be so much cheaper).
The CrystalHD stuff should be considered more of a tinkerer's thing at this stage. Hopefully Davilla agrees with me .
davilla Wrote:Ouch, that smarts . Yes, there needs more work. This is just ramping up from a private development effort (two persons) to a public development effort. More eyes are always better.
EDIT: I'm very interested in crashes. These I will want to stomp ASAP.

Would I spend additional £79 to get my ATV on proper HD? Yes please!!!

Why do people want wireless and HD?
I would have thought you could not get the throughput with wireless to run the HD videos.... ?
