update: just tried the latest nightly build http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/mac ... 4-1400.dmg and it seems to be running smoothly so far.. at least with this XVID movie.. i guess t might be because it is compiled on a new leopard system..

i dont know if it will help or not, have you tried deleting VLC's prefs files and running VLC again to see if it cures it.

yup, tried that.. no cure..

yea, i'm pretty sure it's not some other process using the cpu.. tho whole system has around 70% of idle time during the playback.. also quite sure it happens only while playing divx/xvid movies.. but your right about the audio - it continues to play ok, while video lags behind a bit... still really...

i can confirm exactly the same behaviour on my blackbook 2Ghz, leopard 10.5.1, vlc 0.8.6d ..

i'm experiencing almost the same problem with VLC.. while playing AVI files, every once in a while (couple of minutes) the playback (both audio and video) stutters for a split second..
