Kodi 17.6 on Windows 7.  Video playback "stutters": constantly slows down, and speeds up.  It occurs both while watching internet videos as well as videos from the hard disc. The only remedy that stops this "stuttering" is moving the mouse courser so the controls bar shows at the bottom (the bar with play, stop, media info, bookmark, subtitles, and settings). The picture is fluid and steady while the bar is displaying but it starts immediately stuttering again when the bar hides.  I actually used a program (Move mouse) that kept the bar displaying all the time to watch a movie.  I use other media player (VLC) on this laptop on the same movies and the movies are fluid and steady, so it seems that it is a problem with Kodi video player.
