The VideoLAN Forums

... Yes I agree, a severe bug. And maybe it's more often happening with some machines than with other BIOS (Intel, AMD?) - but I had this issue with very different computers.

fellas - I'm happy to hear, that I never went crazy. Had the same problem over years with every of my 4 different machines and VLC-versions. On Win xp, Win7 and now on MAC OSX - which is bad, because there is no mediaplayer... appearantly nearly no one recognizes this 'wow and flutter' - too bad.
