Hi! I just tried XBMC, first at my University, and it worked excellent!
Then I installed it at home on a E7200 with 2 gig ram and a 2600pro. Video playback is lagging behind (slo-mo speed), then speeding up to keep up with the sound, and then just keeps doing that. Doesnt matter what kind of video, mkv, avi, everything is the same!
I use XP SP3 btw, and video playback works perfectly both in VLC and media player classic (using CoreAVC).
Please help, I would really like to get this up and running! =D

hmm, is there a compatibility problem with 2600pro perhaps? Sounds odd though..

nope... xbmc sucks dude... use Media Portal instead...
xbmc is still not grown up... the efforts should have been going to make the program lighter, faster and exterlan-codecs based...
untill then... you must acquire a very strong computer in order to enjoy all xbmc's benefits.

Sorry, you're right. Been fighting the flu. Must have been all the meds...

I have seen a few slow downs on my q6600 machine with 8GB of ram and an EVGA 260 SSC edition card. I know my machine is more than fast enough, yet on some episodes of NCIS, i get noticable de-sync with audio and video. I'll have to confirm if this is XBMC or the files themselves by using vlc to test, will report later.
