hello there,
i'm a XBMC newbie. I recently set up a powerbook G4 as a HTPC and i've been totally unable to play videos via XBMC. I've tried several different files among the formats avi, mkv, mp4. they will play either choppy, laggy, without sound, too fast, too slow, anything... the same files will play flawlessly in other programs such as VLC and QuickTime. the FAQ says it could be due to poorly interleaved files, but i find difficult to believe all the files will have problems and play ok in other apps at the same time.
any advice?
OS X 10.5.8
PowerPC G4 1.5 GHz 1.25GB RAM
XBMC 10.1
thx
paula
