I both installed the 10.0.5 and 7/2 nightly, and noticed increasing dropped frames on 1080p h264 files. 720p plays smooth, but the last builds render 1080p unwatchable.
To give you the context: a BR 1080p rip ob Avatar played quite watchable with 1 or 2 dropped frames every 20 seconds or so in not too busy scenes with the 3/2 build. Now, I'm getting dropped frames every second, so its something like a x10 decrease.
My setup hasn't changed (Airport extreme with 2TB SMB attached).
Anyone else noticed this? I will test a wired connection though to eliminate WIFI issues.
I don't have anything in 1080p to try this myself, but a few things that might be helpful is xbmc.log with debugging enabled posted to pastbin and for you to run mediainfo and output res, ref frames, codec, etc. A sample file of a few hundred megs might be good too, if the problems exhibited in that small of a sample.
There's a stickied thread in this sub-forum that details log paths and much more info that would be helpful in reporting issues like this.
