cakeove Wrote:Yesterday i install the mac mini next to my old apple tv first generation running crystalbuntu with Crystal HD decoder.

Running Lion with XBMC via wifi the mac mini can handle my 1080p mkv movies from my Synology NAS.

With hardware acceleration i can not find any issue. Transformes 2 with 1080p h.264 and DTS-HD plays very well. Peaks frame rates pass 33Mbps.

I don't see any problem. However if i turn off hardware acceleration cpu goes 118% and little pauses on the video. Guest is only drivers.

But i don't feel any needs to use my mac mini without video hardware acceleration. That is the reason for the video card.

Mac mini runs very well.

Glad to hear it. You've helped me make my decision. A few questions before I go out and but the new mac mini:
1) Which model of the mac mini do you have? (what CPU, RAM, VideoCard)
2) What version of XBMC are you running?

Thanks in advance cakeove.
