Hey
Im planning to buy a mac mini or some other small form box to run XBMC on. But im really confused about 1080p playback.
My question is: does the average 1080p mkv's (x264) play on the 1,83ghz mac mini smoothly? On some forums i read 1080p is do-able but on others people say its too slow. If the 1,83ghz doesnt play it back smoothly does the 2,0 Ghz do it?
I tried searching the forum but most post about the mac mini are from before the ffmpeg patch (or whatever you call it).
Im just really confused.
Sorry for my bad english and sorry if this has been asked before.. but I don't know who is right and who is wrong.
Hope you guys/gals can help me
Thanks
