also, changing to the "changelayerhack" dll in the system/players/dvdplayer directory didn't fix the problem as some had recommended. also, that dll would not allow "the incredibles" to even play (at 1080i or 720p...didn't check other resolutions).

please try with the latest build. i have fixed some memory issues lately that could solve it, also check for free memory again on a box with 64 mb with that latest build.

i compiled yesterday's build and played the worst offending movie i have and i didn't notice any choppiness or stuttering. my wife played a second movie and it did lock up so that problem still seems to exist, but on my initial test, the choppines was nonexistent. this was just a quick preliminary test without free memory enabled. 'll do more formal testing tonight.
by the way, what happened to the video info osd (the one with fps and cache sizes)? when i hit info on the remote during a movie it now gives me the play times and progress bar instead.

xbmc now displays cpu usage for the demuxer/audio/video part of dvdplayer where codec info normally is. please check what they say when stuttering is in effect. i've verified that the total cpu usage of the dvdplayer spikes when stuttering is happening. hopefully this will help pinpoint the problem.

jeffmcclain, that new stuttering is likely another issue caused by a fix for thx optimizer disks.. i think i've managed to keep the fix for thx now without causing that early stuttering.
