Hi everyone, I can't for the life of me figure out why this is happening.
Two days ago I purchased a new video card (Asus EBGT220) as I had downloaded a few mkvs in 1080p which were playing back almost perfectly in VLC with my onboard video card. My PC is a 2.8 ghz amd dual core with 4 gigs of ram. The image is going to my Samsung DLP. The picture looks gorgeous but the playback is where the problem lies.
When I playback anything regardless if it's a 1080p mkv or a 480p dvdrip xvid I notice that after about 3-5 minutes of completely smooth playback it looks like the image is dropping frames for 10-30 seconds then goes back to perfect. I've looked at the performance of my PC and it's barely using 30% of the processor and about 33% of the ram. I can't figure out why the video stutters and even in something that's 480p.
Any help would be great. Thanks!
