ATV2 + Beovision 10 = choppy/stuttering playback

2 replies

The problem is very visible in sideways panning shots or on moving objects, which gets a choppy movements occuring every 5-6 sec. The exact same video files plays back fluently on a WDTV box. Tested with 720p and different lower resolution files. Also tried different output settings on ATV2, 720p 50hz or 60hz and 480p, but no luck. 

A discussion on the XBMC forum suggests disabling any motion improvement features in the TV, but i don't see any option for disableing the BV10s "Motion Picture Improvement" feature...

Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

(PS. I have the same behavior when playing movies from my MacBook Pro via a mini displayport to hdmi adapter on the BV10.)

To answer myself: Turns out my BV10 has some very early firmware with no option for setting game mode on or film mode off. Both should help remove lag and choppy playback.
