Last time i spoke with Elan about this PlexConnect was using same profile as the generic iOS one (the idea being that it would get replaced with ATV2 and ATV3 specific ones at some point - that way ATV3 owners would not get penalised).
The actual file is PMS.app/Contents/Resources/Profiles/iOS-AppleTV.xml if you want to play about with it on your specific setup (bear in mind any PMS update may oevrwrite it).
If that's the case would ATV vs iOS playback comparison help us?
I'm sorry to barge in on this thread but this got me curious. I don't have my ATV at the moment, so I'm wondering... PlexConnect for video with SRT-subtitles is displaying them not burned-in like the majority of Plex devices? How are you guys achieving this?
Well, you can try it with your iPad :) All is taken care by PMS & HLS protocol, nothing for you to do.
Only thing I've done is replacing ATV default profile with iOS 4.1 profile to make 1080 videos available for my ATV2 without transcoding (because we all know Apple TV2 plays 1080 just fine).
Is Plex supporting soft-subtitles over HLS now? I don't know how I did let that slip trough. I'll try it!
Quality with AirPlay is better than PlexConnect.
With latest plex pass PMS there is a dedicated IOS-Apple TV XML profile which does seem to serve up a 1080p transcode.
