My RAM failed on my HTPC and I had to return them for warranty and I dind't had any others with me to replace them during the week I had to wait.
So I copied some of my kids movies on my USB stick since there's a media player build in interface on my Samsung TV. I already tried some movies in the past like the big 20gig Avatar in .mkv and it was playing like a breeze so I didn't had any concern about what I was doing, but I was aware the Tangled movie I have was stuttering like hell on my dedicated HTPC.
With nothing to lose I fired up Tangled and WOW... it was playing perfectly without any problem that I could see with my eyes (since there no GUI showing bit-rate and whatsoever)
Too bad the GUI of the media player is so basic and it's only working from a USB port cause my TV rock
Now I wish I could install XBMC on my TV...
