vrtraveller - Its been next month for over a year now I think. Personally I assume the project is dead, you cant keep pushing timelines like that and not have someone high up breathing down your neck. So unless these guys are garage developers (which could be the case) then assume that they have no one working on it and its waaaay at the end of the backlog.
Edit: To clarify, I still use Skybox for everything and its definitely the best player out there for everyday use, I am absolutely not bagging the product at all, I am just saying that I dont believe that the 5/8K is a priority item for them. Also, in saying that, its the most requested feature on the forum, so I really dont understand why its depriotised.
