Some early impressions 2011 mac mini server standard config. Results are by observation. Happy to test other issues.

Setup:

AEBS 5th gen, eyetv netstream dtt tuner all via ETHERNET
Samsung 2009 Plasma 720p TV via HDMI
Amp: Onkyo TX-SR308 DTS/AC3 capable
Macmini with 3 x 2 tb wd connected via USB
Resolution setting on macmini: 1080i, under scan off, refresh rate 50ghz


Mediafile:
One that I was unable to play on atv2
Image

Results:

1.Mediafile Playback

There are no artefacts but there is an infrequent stutter though not very noticeable. The amp indicates digital sound but the media info indicates lossy so I am assuming that it is not an hd stream.

2. EyeTV

HD playback displays some artefacts. Channel changing is probably 80% as smooth in comparison to a normal TV.

3. Mediafile Playback while streaming HD EYE TV channel to ipad2.

If you look at my previous posts, this was my main goal and at least in this test it runs well. No disturbances noted on either stream.

4. Airplay using Airserver installed on machine

Both video and audio airplay work as expected. Some setting issues where output speakers switch from Amp to internal.

5. XBMC skin AEON MQ3 trial

Short GUI performance test. Ran the Super version and ran very well. The youtube trailer streams were of poor quality (not sure if this is a bandwidth setting) and the audio defaulted to internal speakers.

Early stuff, still playing around with the apple remote which sometimes stops to work or starts eyetv instead of xbmc...etc. Smile And yes it is noisy, the fan is on a lot of the time during these trials.

EDIT: I hope Titanic is not an analogy for the mini Wink
Macmini Server 2011 i7 Quad Core, OS 10.8.2, Amp Onkyo TX-SR308 USB WD drives 3x2TB TV Samsung Plasma 720p EyeTV Integration
There are only 10 kinds of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.
