Hey guys -
First, thanks for this outstanding resource. I have learned a lot just lurking. Unfortunately, I have a question...
I have an Acer Revo 3700 with XBMC. The program itself runs great - but the media does not. I get occasionally jerky picture.
I have a 2TB WD Green inside a USB 2.0 enclosure.
I used the 'o' key to bring up the playback stats and I am not dropping any frames. I am also not watching massive movies. It's chuggy on 720p occasionally and on modestly encoded 1080p stuff too. No more than the 720p though.
Any ideas? Is there a way to setup caching on my internal drive? Unfortunately, this computer doesn't have eSATA like I had read it did. Is the USB2 bottlenecking me?
Thanks for any help.
