Long story short.

I got a ATV2 about 3 days ago, jailbroke it to run XBMC. Everything plays fine with XBMC streaming from my media server ( movies, TV Shows etc )

Home Sharing works - Music plays fine, I can see the movies that are in my iTunes, but the movies don't work the way they should.

here is the problem.

when I play the movies that are just in my iTunes library.. (mostly downloaded snowboard and mountain biking movies. ) I get choppy playback / green boxes and studder.

these movies are downloaded ( legally...since they are free anyways )
converted with handbrake
they play fine on my macbook ( where they are stored )

What could be the issue?
