I have the latest jb-release of VLC, and I have also tried the latest official release, but my problem is still remaining.

I have found a couple of threads discussing this issue, but I can't find any solution that works for me.
How can I set my VLC to be able to maximize on my secondary monitor?

Come on, lets fix this soon!

Well, I can confirm that the "choppy playback" problem is gone when audio output is disabled, every media I play is absolutely smooth then :( I tried possibly every combination of audio settings, no luck and I'm really not willing to watch any video without sound. I wonder wtf is this sou...

I tried ReClock now, and also checked "Force ReClock to be loaded in place of default DirectSound/Ware renderers", but it made absolutely no difference in VLC. I also tried to find ReClock renderer in VLC sound output settings without luck.

It is my understanding that the Sound Blaster Audigy also has problems. Try looking at this: http://kxproject.lugosoft.com/index.php?skip=1 Replacement drivers for Creative sound cards Thanks, but a quick look and I see that the latest time the KX-drivers were updated was 2004. I just can't downloa...

Thank you for your help DJ,

My cpu is maximum 1-2% while running a movie in VLC, and I have a Sound Blaster Audigy (high performance stuff) sound card with the latest drivers. Same for my display drivers.

It still is less smooth than in Windows Media Player

I just resolved a similar problem.

I know you have the latest drivers.Yet, check if you have Hardware acceleration set to max in windows graphics properties.

It's set at max already

I have the latest Nightly build of VLC that I update every week, but I can't get a truly smooth playback in VLC, no matter if I play a DivX-avi or a real DVD movie. I have done all the things that you are recommended to do - updated my sound card/graphic card drivers, deleted the vlc preferences dir...

I have realized now after comparing exact same scenes from different movies between WMP and VLC, that VLC still is slightly worse when it comes to playback. Especially in a car chase or something like that. It's a little choppy (nothing wrong with sound though). It's not a big difference but it's s...

DJ - I installed a new set of drivers for my Sound Blaster card, and also installed the latest, August version of DirectX. It seems to be quite OK now! The image is also better, it looks like it does in WMP now. Thank you. Are there any other performance-settings that I can change in VLC for smoothe...

Thanks for your reply DJ. I did all of what you said, but the playback is still jerky. I can especially notice this when in scenes like somebody is walking on a street, and I see the playback is like sticking 2-3 times quickly per second. This does not happen in Windows Media Player. I also checked ...

Guys, I have a fast computer with all the latest stuff, and Windows XP Pro SP2. I'm using VLC to watch clips/movies but when I'm watching original DVD's, the playback is a little jerky. It's like it's skipping a frame every fourth or fifth frame or something. Simply jerky playback. But when I'm play...
