Also, can you explain what you mean by buffering when streaming video with xbmc?
I ran Plex with a delay which is exactly the same as the buffer stated in Air. Unfortunately I had to change settings or restart my Mac Mini after a few movies, because audio and subtitles ran out of sync by a vast amount... Do you experience the same issue?
Yes! JRiver automatically switches sample- and bitrates with Air on, that's no issue. When streaming video, and playing the sound over Air, the latter will be buffering, causing lipsync troubles. That's why I do switch to USB when video-streaming with xbmc or Netflix. With USB on I don't have any lipsync issues at all. I do use a supersilent Windows HTPC with the W8.1 OS.
