Mystikos Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Hello, currently running stable build of XBMC 2009-06-01 9.04.1-FIXED-Babylonand the xbox struggles to play hi definition video, for example 1280x720 willrun very slow with the standard mplayer. When I open the video with dvdplayerin XBMC the video will play slightly better, but then the audio isn't sync. Could anyone suggest any alternative players or XBMC builds which will run HD video smoothly? Note I am using the High quality pixel shader v2 in the config setup. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cba.gy Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I think the low quality pixel shader would perform better but you would still need to re-encode the video to a lower bitrate for the xbox to be able to have a go at playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritneysPAIRS Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 will have to use Divx HD as MKV containers will kill XBMC on a normal xbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
