Hi,

I've tested a few 720p files.

- dexter.302.720p.hdtv.x264-sys.mkv - 50min - 1.09 GB
- entourage.504.720p.hdtv.x264-sys.mkv - 25min - 600 MB

However they use the a52 audio codec... But playing it on the Boxee appletv, there is no sound.

Do I have to install a codec or something on Boxee?

I had to turn off digital audio in settings.

Why?

Same for me.

Because that's meant for pass-through (ATV does not decode the audio, just pass it to the next device to do it, normally an A/V Receiver).
