I am getting jittery video when playing DVDs on disc or DVD ISO files. I have converted all my dvd into ISO files using dvdfab. Basically they are converted into 1 file with a size of 4.7GB to 8GB depending on the source dvd. IN fast moving sequences or when the camera is panning i get a line acrros the middle of the screen as if the upper half of the screen is refreshing faster or slower then the lower half. All movies and videos play perfectly in windows media player. It seems to be a problem with the XBMC player.

I need help do not know what to do at this point. It used to not do this and I do not know when it started happening.


Here is my configuration:

* CORE 2 Duo 2.66GHz
* 6GB DDR3 Ram
* 500GB HD for operating system and programs
* 4TB of HD storage for media (4X1.5TB raid 5) 3ware 9500S
* GIGABYTE ATI RADEON 4850 with 1GB DDR3 -- ATI CCC 9.5 installed
* Video and Audio through HDMI out from video card to receiver to Pioneer Kuro 50 inch Plasma
* Desktop Resolution: 1920x1080 32Bit at 60Hz
* VISTA 64bit Ultimate Service Pack 2
* XBMC 9.04.1
