yamahacrasher Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 WTF could be wrong?? Do I need to download some codec pack? It stutters and jumps a bit on normal downloaded AVI's, on streaming news/video, but NOT on 10Gb .mkv files!?!? Any help on this?? Please! For watching avi's I use GOM player, win Media player, and that other traffic cone player....forgot the name. Same on all, no smooth playing. I got 4Gb ram, i5 CPU and ****, should handle video with no probs right?? HELP! Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beej Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Download VLC player and play everything through that, if it won't play on that its either a hardware problem or a download problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yamahacrasher Posted November 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 Thanks, but my "Inted HD graphics" can't be updated at the Intel site, and my damn model is not listed at the Toshiba page. So back to f*cking square 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdtongchai Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 Check in control panel if you have K-Lite Codec pack installed... I have some problems with the latest releases of them too... When i playback in mediaplayer it stutters, but when i playback in any other program it works fine... Right click on the video you want to playback and select OPEN WITH and choose a different program than the default one... If playback still stutters then it might be a codec conflict... http://www.free-codecs.com/download_soft.php?d=5946&s=775 go to this link to download Klite codec pack and run it... just click next and don't change the default settings until you reach the screen where it asks for DXVA HARDWARE ACCELERATION. There select ENABLE Internal decoder for H.264 video (first option) but DO NOT ENABLE THE SECOND ONE!!!! (second on is VC-1 video) Click next until you reach the speaker selection screen and choose how many speakers you have. click next until it starts installing (make sure your internet explorer windows are closed!!!!) and after installation everything SHOULD be fine..... If it's not, harddisk activity might be a problem.... if you have a very poor antivirus program, it might be scanning the file as you are playing it back causing interruptions... Lots of other option might cause your problems, but these are most likely... good luck and let me know if it worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitschiguy Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 This is usually caused by a broken or corrupted codec or if someone has messed up a mux and put a codec in the wrong container, but if it's happening on multiple files and files of a certain type then I would say it's the codec. I know it's already been said but the k-Lite codec pack is a safe bet and all the versions come with Divx and Xvid or you can try the CCP one. K-Lite comes with Media Player Classic. Check all the settings in your media player too - framerate sync etc. This type of thing can cause this problem. Judging by the symptoms I would say it's almost certainly codec related and not a hardware issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had codec 6.5.5. installed, downgraded to 6.5.0 but still same. Followed your instructions. Have free Avast anti virus installed, never caused me probs before. Have to investigate the frame rate then. Another day, this comp is about to exit through the window right now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeusbheld Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 outside chance it could be a hard drive issue. it could be fragmented, need compacting, too full or even just too slow. run some disk utilities and see what happens.

yamahacrasher Posted November 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 Problem solved. Found that "Toshiba HDD protection" was running in the background, always. Turned it off, now all plays fine. I don't know what this HDD protection is, maybe some safety in case the comp is dropped. Thanks a lot for all the input tho guys!
