This sounds great, certainly keeping an eye on this thread! I have a c2d + 9400 mac mini using xbmc.

Great to hear that its working great in Plex. Someone asked this before but im not sure it was answered: Could their work be used for xbmc? Is there any way you could just implement their sollution Davilla?

I just tried the killa sample, my 2.26Ghz C2D MacBook Pro uses ca. 85% CPU on both cores and drops around 20 frames.

With Plex, I have no performance increase whatsoever with my 9400 mini. So unless Im doing something wrong, I think their new release could use some work.... Looking forward to c what XBMC can achieve with this.

I reinstalled plex from scratch, same problem. then i toggled the refresh rate from 60 to 50 and back to 60 hz. Voilla, Plex shaves up more than 50% of the CPU usage. 2 days after Apple released the API. How fucking amazing isnt this!!!!!
Movies i rip from bluray myself with crazy high bitrate even plays flawless now. Talk about a badass improvement. What plex does now is amazing. Can hardly wait for this in XBMC!
