Just to be clear: you're asking on the VLC forum why video plays well on VLC after a re-install but poorly in Windows Media Player?

Update you display adapter drivers (and chipset drivers if you have AGP card).

Codec packs suck! This is one of the worst things you can do to be sure Direct Show won't work. But all the codec packs in the world shouldn't effect VLC because it's NOT a Direct Show player.
