Learned alot here, folks seems really helpful for the most part in all the posts i've read.
My question/problem is I have a Hp3000 sff with 3.8 gb ram and a Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU E7500 @ 2.93GHz × 2 running through vga cable to a ARio 720p 23" tv. Ubuntu 12.04. Most of my media is stored on a WD 1 tb external hd hooked in via usb to the comp.
I get stutter, really noticeable on some movies not so much on others. Does not seemed to be linked to any paticular file type(.avi,video ts,etx). I bring up system monitor and iam using around 12-16% of each core and virtually no ram while running xbmc with vids playing. I would like to know, if anybody can help me, if this could be coming from using the onboard graphics. If so, which graphics card would you recommend OR what mb size card sould resolve this problem. If I need to post anything else for ease of helpful solutions just lemme know.
Thanks.
ps/ I cant get the box to stream to anything at all. Android phone and tablet both work as remotes, but no streaming. Cool if thats a diffrent forum or whatever just thought i'd tag it on.
