M2TS AVCHD playback on Apple Macbook Client

Hey everyone,

Just tried the 6.5.4 beta, in addition to the 6.4.8 release, and I can't playback AVCHD files (they are M2TS files with h.264 1080i video and AC3 mutlichannel audio).

I get pink and green distortion on the screen, the audio works sometimes. All other client functions work properly.

This is on a brand new MacBook 13 inch aluminum unibody machine, 2.0Ghz.

The 9600M video supports CABAC and CAVLC entropy decode offloading, so what are the chances I will see very very low CPU utilization while playing back 1080i and 1080p clips when this works?

I have many! Do you use the sageTV tech support FTP site? I already have one uploaded there under the benjamin folder.

I guess I will be opening a ticket with tech support soon.

I don't have anywhere to post these files, but there is a person who has posted his own native sony M2TS files from his AVCHD camcorder:

http://whoismatt.com/ccount/click.php?id=75

The rest of his videos are in WM format, so ignore those.

The page with download links:

Also, if you can play these, would you take note of your CPU utilization? My PC plays them back at 7% utilization!

Thanks.
