I just got my first Apple TV Gen 2 yesterday. It was running 4.4.4 of the IOS. Jailbroke it and got XBMC installed. Got XBMC to see my DB and source locations. So far so good.
All of my movies and TV shows are located on two ReadyNAS Units. DVD's are ripped in VOB format, Blu-rays are ripped in M2TS format and my TV Shows are all converted to MKV format.
Now the DVD Movies and the DVD MKV files all work pretty good and are really acceptable. But when I try the Blu-Ray movies they seem like they are mising a couple of frames whil playing and I get the buffering of the movie as it plays.
All my other Media Center machines in the house are tunning Windows 7 and work just fine.
Is the Apple TV 2 not powerful enough to handle the HD "Large" type files? Would I be better off waiting for a jailbreak for Apple TV 3 and get a ATV3 to do what I want? I really dont want to convert all my Blu-ray movies to MKV format, over 400 over them...
