The box I'm running is a dual core Atom 1.4 Ghz with 2 GB of memory and N wireless. At first I thought the choppy movies in XBMC were the wireless speed, then I thought the box might not be powerful enough, but when I installed VLC and XVID, and then ran the movie in VLC, they run with no problems.

So is there a setting I'm missing to allow XBMC to play the movies without any choppyness?

I'm running Windows 7 SP1 Fully patched with no Anti-Virus.

Any ideas?

Have you enabled hardware acceleration from System settings, Video, Playback?

I'm not sure, but I'll check and see if I did. What is the movie player in XBMC? Is it a custom player or someone else's built into the interface?

It was written by the XBMC team, but obviously uses lots of existing open source code such as ffmpeg.
