Hi guys,
I'm italian, so sorry for my bad english.
I've bought AT2 and Time Capsule. I've jailbreak AT2 and install XBMC. If i try to strem a 1080p film from my PC(windows 7) i don't have any problem but if i try to stream a same film from time capsule it are every 30 second in buffering.
If i play a film on my pc from tc have any problem. I Can't understand what is the problem.

I'm sorry but I do not have any crash. I have a problem only with files in time capsule therefore i think is not necessary the log file.

Don't use a Time Capsule. Far too many reports of it not working. Also, no log = no soup

I had a Time Capsule...tossed it out.
Got a Router with a USB host and plugged in 1TB portable drive instead. Works brilliantly, and you should be able to sell the Time Capsule and not have to fork out too much extra for the new gear.

Hello,
I've got a timecapsule (4th gen) and ran initially into problems (with AFP giving even worse results than SMB). Those seems to be solved by changing TCP ACK settings in sysctl.conf on the ATV2 :
/etc/sysctl.conf :
net.inet.tcp.delayed_ack=1
Note that the value "0" simply don't work.
Playing high bitrates 1280p mkv now works like a charm with AFP - occasional stuttering may appear with SMB, but it is ways better than before (systematic buffering). Using Wifi.
Worth a try i think.

Hi Bonic,
Thank you for reply. I've tried to connect with ssh in my AT2 but in ect/ i can't find sysctl.conf i've only found syslog.conf.
Could you help me please?
I've bought TC only for this because i thought there's no problem from apple device to apple device....
thanks

Hi,
this did definately change something. The moment I used delayed_ACK=1, all my movies would buffer much more rapidly I'm affraid.
Nevertheless, this might be onto something. I have played with alot of these sysctl settings, but yet to find a good setup for my rig. (Which should be pretty standard: ATV2 -> CAT6 -> Time Caspule
As to the OP:
If the file isn't there, simply create it. I prefer installing nano first, and edit my files directly through SSH:
1. apt-get install nano
2. nano /etc/sysctl.conf
3. type whatever you want accoring to previous posts
4. Press ctrl-o, confirm by "y", and ctrl-x to quit again.
