Hi, I have the latest xmbc and I just can't find out why the picture is stuttering when playing a movie.. It plays well on windows mediacenter.. I tried uninstalling xmbc, codecs and so on, but it does not help. It looks like it plays some frames, then stops, and plays again. What could it be??

too slow cpu maybe.. if have nvidia gfx you could most likely enable hw acceleration in settings.

it is not the cpu problem. my computer is AMD athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5200+ 2.71 GHZ with 2GB ram. The video stutters even with divx videos. It's not the 720/1080p issue. Windows mediacenter on that pc plays mkv and divx perfectly, but XMBC does not. it looks like some stupid bug that just needs to be set somewhere correctly. Actually it had appeared when I installed the new version of XMBC.. it played OK before. Where do I set DirectX display mode on XMBC?

WELL,
problem solved.
I installed an older version of xmbc (9.04) and it works nice now. now some plugins don't.. I'm looking forward to a new release of xmbc.. maybe the picture stuttering will be gone..

There is no debug log no mention of video card or drivers in use, not useful report. There are also tons of topics and scripts to fix this type of problem... Hidden in plain sight.
