Saw this on Engadget, http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/20/xbmc-...-apple-tv/

Looks like Davilla has been busy

Awesome! I literally just read this on Engadget. This is ridiculous.

Does it handle 1080p?

This is great news! Might mean the boxee box goes on eBay.

Also on the front page here too: http://xbmc.org/theuni/2011/01/20/you-as...d-iphone4/

Looks great, runs on ipad too.

What the hell? Scott, you cheeky bastard!

Pretty much everything that you can play on XBMC for <insert_platform_here> will work just fine.

this is awesome!

My only questions with respect the atv2 are:

What kind of bitrate will it decode smoothly on 1080p video?

I have a concern about the 100 Mb wired ethernet with 1080p video on a file server.

Also, will it do auto frame rate detection?

Should be fine for streaming 1080p content, even native bluray.
