XBMC - Laggy when playing - LuaKT - 2013-08-31
Hi,
I just installed XBMC on my Windows 8 computer for the first time and tried to play some files. I'm getting ~5fps when the videos are playing but It's only using ~5% of my CPU. I have an Intel i5 CPU, GTX 560ti GPU and 8gb of ram. Have all the latest drivers installed. The files play fine in VLC.

Wondering if any of you can help me.
Thanks
EDIT: Have tested with a fresh userdata directory, same issue.
EDIT2: Installed version 2.1 instead of 2.2 and it works perfectly, guess I'll be using that instead.
EDIT3: Seems it didn't like Directsound, when I used the other setting it works
