QUOTE(aceedburn @ Mar 22 2012, 01:25 PM) Apple tv2 does not output in 1080p, only apple tv 3 does. Apple tv 3 will be able to be jailbroken sometime soon. thanks, thats i already knew. just that i want to know how was it. is it same as 720p or more sharper maybe? smooth playing or lag? or not worth it? couse im thinking of fetching one today(the 2nd generation) sorry, newbie here.

i have apple tv 2, jailbroken since 2010. i install atv flash black, streaming almost all movies from my synology server contents. ATV flash black will catalog my movies in a cool manner.. download all movie poster automatically, display synopsis, plus ability to download subtitle for my movie. the media player layout looks almost like apple existing features. it can play 99% of my movies. english movies usually no problem, new anime with special codec or 1080p may experience shuttering & skipping. all i have to do is using my iPhone from anywhere in the world to download movie or series by the synology server, when i arrive home, my apple tv catalog them nicely & i can view it right away. i once buy the xtreamer prodigy and some android media player but got very disappointed with everything they offer. my appletv is far more stabile & superior than other media player. you can see that people are selling apple tv2 in ridicules price & even expensive than the new apple tv3.
