Hey, I've got a soft box, and I've been enjoying it with my 250gb hdd for quite some time now (You enjoy things so much more when you do them yourself).

I use it very regularly as my all-in-one media center, and I don't understand anymore, how people could live without it.

My question is as follows:

I have some videos and trailers that are in HDTV resolutions (720p) and the system just can't play them at a framerate that would even be considered sub-par. It's about one frame with a dot of sound every couple seconds. I understand that it's a measely 700MHz Processor, but I am wondering if anyone has had luck playing high res clips on media ceter, or if they might have a valid solution. I really enjoy watching these things on my nice HDTV, rather than my 19" pc monitor.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I understand that I can connect my pc to my tv, and I am basically the living breathing radioshack, so I know how to do it. But everything looks so much cleaner when it's running from the xbox, so I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or assistance.

Thanks!

Doesn't XBMC support HDTV signals? I know it's mentioned in the video settings.

What are you using to play these trailers?





Thanks goes out to theridges for the userbars :)

The system can output the signal, and XBMC has no issue there. The issue seems more directly related to actually having the capacity to process a video that is 720p, that's a lot of video work for a 700Mhz. I was just wondering if anyone has figured out a good trick to squeeze enough juice out the system to smoothly run 720p AVI?
