Sorry for giving this a bump. Has there been any progress on this part? Anyone tried using the IOS-PVR version of XBMC on their ATV2 and is willing to provide some results?
I’m living in the Netherlands, we have both SD and HD channels here
- SD MPEG2 Channels, 576i.
- HD MPEG 4 Part-10 Channels, 1080i
Can any of the developers maybe shed a light on how the ATV2 will handle these file-types? I guess the MPEG2 SD channel can be handled by Software rendering? And is there HW-acceleration + deinterlacing for the MPEG4 because this should be the main issue I guess.
I’m really interested in this information, would be sad to go buy a ATV2 and find out it wont play any live channels. So any experience of ATV2 + PVR would be great, let me know!
Btw. In my case, i'm interested in 1080i MPEG4 files!

You won't have luck with 1080i material because the GPU has no deinterlacing feature and so the stream will be decoded in software via CPU which won't have enough power...
