I'm running xbmc since a few years and i haven't touched anything to my installation since a couple of months.
Around 1 month ago XBMC started acting really strange. With most of the movies, it will lag very bad and looks like the movie is running 1 image per second. Usually i don't get any sound and most of the time XBMC will just crash after a few seconds.
- It isn't a network problem - the movie plays correctly if i read it using VLC
- It isn't a machine problem - the same thing happens wether i play the movie locally from my HTPC or remotely from my other PC or even from my NAS
- It doesn't look like a skin problem - just switched from Aeon MQ4 to Confluence and i have the same problem.
Where should i look next ? What should i do to find out where the problem comes from ?
I really can't reinstall everything, i have spent hundreds of hours to customise my skin.
