Win All movies very choppy, tv shows play fine
#1
Hello, when I first started using XBMC it worked great and everything worked from 1080p on down of any file format. About 6 months or so, I noticed that movies stopped working. I can't think of anything I changed. I have since installed the newer versions of XBMC and am currently on the newest release and with each new release the problem remains. The movie videos from the starting point and extremely choppy, around 3fps. I attached a screenshot of the OSD info though I don't know what I am looking for. The strange thing is that all of my TV files play just fine and when I play the videos with media player or VLC they work just fine.

CP usage is about 40% on my homeserver. All videos are playing off the hard drive with HDMI to my TV. My computer is a pretty slow HP media server with a 1.3ghz AMD athlon and 5gb of memory with windows 64 bit installed.

Again, everything worked fine for the first couple years. I don't watch movies much, mainly use it for TV, but recently been watching more and wish it worked right. Don't know what else to try after reinstalling a couple times already. I tried changing all the settings I saw on threads here from chaing the audio to direct, to messing with the settings under video output and playback with frame rates and DXVA, etc.

Any help would be appreciated. Image

It probably down to how your system is interacting with the new AudioEngine, see the sticky http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=146911
