I have installed XBMC now for a while and noticed it has difficulty with high-def content(720p and 1080p). Playback is tearing and shaky. While in mediaportal and media player classic playback is nice and smooth(core-avc codec installed). Since the codecs are incorporated in XBMC i don't have a clue what i can configure to make playback smooth. It can't be the setup, since it's quite new with some decent specs in my opinion.
Weird thing is that if i run taskmanager in the background and play someting, then stop it and have a quick look at the taskmanager i don't see any stress for any of the 4 cores of the cpu. This makes me assume it's a config thing somewhere. The driver of the onboard graphics cards doesn't allow much config though.
I have the following setup:
Asus M4A88TD-M EVO/USB3, AM3, 880G, 4xDDR3, mATX
AMD Athlon II X4 640, 3.00GHz, 2MB, AM3
Kingston ValueRam 4GB(2x2GB) DDR3 1333MHz C9
WD Caviar Green 500GB, Intellipower, 32MB, SATA2
OS: Windows 7 64-bit
Any suggestions or things i have to look at? Kind regards.
