Plex requires a pretty beefy host computer for transcoding media on the fly to send to the ATV2. My (admittedly anemic) 1.83C2Duo Mini can't keep up with anything. Even a monster machine will only transcode at a limited bitrate through ffmpeg I remember reading somewhere so doesn't look good anyway no matter the source. Plex + ATV2 = proof of concept only. It's totally useless for day-to-day HD content.
