Atv has specific perofrmance for atv2. Seems like people dont know that. Better educate.. ATV 2 has Hardware Acceleration for- x264/h264'right?

Screw microcraps format/container - avi. Raw blue ray/x264 rips flawlessmon apple tv2. MY ONLY ISSUE is anime- subtitles. Video is flawless.

Only use x264 w atv2 fellow users. Get 5.1 recsivers.pick dts over dOlby. Who cares just usex264! Fug avi/vxid Tongue

AppleTV2,1_4.2.1_8C154_Restore - 4.1.1

restore to that, run greenp0ison, make sure you wait 40-60 seconds after you click - complete.

This works for x264/Dolby Ac3/DTS - FLAWLESS

Only Anime doesnt work - with Subtitles. all good I use my macbook/dvi-hdmi converter for this. this will be fixed i bet in the future.

ATV works wonderfully, for those who dont wanna buy a hdmi computer/GPU (for 720/1080) SO Cost Effictive Tongue

doesn't work flawless without a receiver to decode, i use the ATV2 in the bedroom, when i play 1080p movies i get lots of buffering, i'm assuming it's because of the downmix. kind of sux because i have a huge tv in the basement with my htpc, so 720p rips aren't going to cut it.

Yes. I do have a receiver to which the Atv2 is hooked up to. 1080p bdrips are flawless. However the iphone vid files are still buffering.

not certain what i'm going to do yet about all this, if i can't play 1080p it's kind of useless for me. i'm sure i'll figure something out

Have you tried it with the receiver? If that's work then maybe you can a powered HDMI splitter. No logic behind it, but most the mods defy logic. Smile

no, i'm not certain what that would do anyways, i just think the atv2 can't handle 1080p and downmixing audio

well, it works over FTP directly connected to router my main HTPC is connected to, smb still gives buffering. i'm using a powerline adapter, the first one belkin released, so i will try a newer model this weekend, i know they've made improvements in the tech.

ok, after making my smb shares anonymous, i no longer have the buffering problem now, why is it so hard to turn on anonymous sharing in windows, oh well it works now. ok, not hard, but not apparent
