If you have HD xvid avi's that are not playing well then I would go and find better copies of them that are in h.264. Better quality per byte, plus it should work without issue. I don't know why people still insist on making HD avi's with xvid. It's a hacked together media container with an outdated codec, and when HD rips were gaining popularity (due to HD sources being available) h.264 was already here.
you are totally right
im always going for x264 codecs if available, since in noticed it works so much better in xbmc
on a sidenote: i sometimes have audio drops with my videos. only if i press pause and play again its back. it always occurs when the they cut out commercials in tv-rips.
