Part of the problem is your running it from a HDD. Try slapping in a SSD and your entire outlook on life will change.

HDD's are by far the biggest bottle neck in any machine. And its not even up for discussion.

SSD, not SSS. Solid State Drive. You give up space but gain 10X the speed. Use the SSD as your boot drive, and use the existing drive as your paging/storage drive. Its worth the $100 investment. Especially running something like XBMC...its going to take much longer to recall information from a mechanical drive. Plus, booting into your machine in less than 8 seconds is pretty fucking cool too.

The "SSS" was the autocorrect on the phone, but thank you for the suggestion.

hey brahs,...are these apple tv boxes the 2nd generation?...it dosent say on the website,...check it out,if so ,..they are only 99 bucks!

nah i believe its 3rd gen.

They stopped making 2nd gen years ago, and were sold out. Reason 2nd gen was more expesive then the 3rd gen was because they stopped making them, and at the time you could only jailbreak the 2g.

Not sure if you can jailbreak 3g iTv now, but if so that $99 is great price.

saw a video on you tube and it says u can get xbmc thru air play or sum shit till there is a jail break available!

I guess you could airplay your cpu screen, and stream... thats viable option. I do that for a lot of pay-per-view sport events.

I ended upgrading iOS and ditching the jailbreak. All the movies I load I just them in mp4/m4v into my itunes, I found it streams cleaner, and at higher resolution - in rare case I can't find mp4 I just convert it from mkv/avi -> mp4.

Plus I have cable, so I'm not stressing for tv channels... My main thing is cataloging HD 1080p movies and having a non choppy playback. Which it does excellent for me.
