    how does it play in media player classic? you sure it's not your pc bogging it (multitasking etc)?

    have a lot of codecs on your system? divx 5.2.1 is what i use.

      letting ffdshow decode the video will ensure you are using minimal cpu, download & install the 'october 13 2005' version at http://www.aziendeassociate.it/cd.asp?dir=/ffdshow


      as the LT mentioned, use 'media player classic' to play the files. divx's player is one of the worst i've ever seen, very inefficient the last time i used it...

          your file could be the problem too.

              try different players, or even scan it for bad frames in virtualdub.
              VirtualDub is a video capture/processing utility for Windows platforms. It is streamlined for fast linear operations over video.


              load the file, VIDEO>SCAN VIDEO STREAM FOR ERRORS
