Hello, i have been using mezzmo for a long time now with my samsung tv, however i just got an apple tv with xmbc on it but the 1080 movies look slow, this is because the device doesnt support the 1080 playback, the question is, do you guys have a profile for appletv xmbc that transcodes all the content on to 720?

We have a profile for XBMC, which basically doesn't transcode anything, because XBMC can play most (if not any) content thrown at it.

Looking at this page: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=XBMC_for_Mac_on_Apple_TV_1 , it mentions that you can add a Crystal HD card to enable 1080p playback - is that an option for you? If not, then yes, we can modify the device profile for XBMC to downscale videos to 720p. If you wish to try a new profile, please open a support ticket and I'll send one to you.
