Hey

I have decided to wait for the next ATV generation (which will come hopefully this fall). In the meantime I set up my old Notebook with WinXP and also I set up Home Sharing so I can access my big library from my Mac. Anyway, when I want to play a move via Home Sharing it "judders" all the time, as if either the hardware was not good enough or the LAN connection was too slow.

So I tried to play an HD movie with high bitrate from the hard disk via iTunes which worked out fine and then also tried to connect my Mac library directly and play the Movie in VLC via streaming. Both options worked very well, so the problem is the home sharing...

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

thanks
