I loaded up a WMV (VC-1) 1080p file with this config, mpc-hc loads up ok.
XBMC play: bad, audio stutters every 3 seconds and repeating bits of audio.
mpc-hc play: seems fine, no stutters (and lower cpu usage).
I loaded up a MKV (AVC) 1080p file.
xbmc play: ok
mpc-hc play: video stutters.
I loaded up a MKV tv serie (AVC) 1080p.
xbmc play: same as first: stutters and repeats.
mpc-hc play: crash of mpc-hc (after a long loading).
What do I do? I can't seem to find the problem.
And also... how to easily switch back to xbmc (i have the iphone remote). Stopping (with . on my keyboad) wont return to xbmc
I can't speak to whether the stuttering you're seeing is down to hardware, encoding or playback but I can suggest you try a later XBMC build, if you try my latest build there are some external player changes in there that should make the process of launching the external player work better (even if it doesn't fix the stuttering problem).
You'll need to create a new file called playercorefactory.xml (in the same folder as the advancedsettings.xml you already have), the following content will match the setup you currently have
Code:
<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="externalplayer" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="true" video="true">
<filename>E:\Documents\Programs\MPC Home Cinema\mplayerc.exe</filename>
<args>/monitor 2 /fullscreen /close</args>
</player>
</players>
</playercorefactory>
