Okay guys, I need some help. I am very new, please forgive me.
The Setup
I have a Toshiba laptop running windows 7 with an external terabyte hard drive with all movies and tv shows on it. I have XBMC v11 Eden running on my Apple TV 1 (silver)
The issue
The issue I am having seams to be a streaming issue. I have the movie folders set up via a shared smb network file. If I try and play any movie of 720p or higher it streams in a very glitchy fashion. It won't play more than a couple seconds without the audio (and sometimes the video) sputtering and stopping to buffer (and re-buffer). It takes about 2.5 hrs to watch a 90 minute movie. Please help.
I love xbmc. I love how it will play any video type and I love how it makes my media experience so much better. But I really don't want to watch everything in standard def.
