VLC stutters on 2nd monitor!

Postby metaljesus » 26 Jul 2010 12:10

Hi Guys!

Recently i've bought a LED TV. I've linked the TV with my computer and would like to watch movies, tv shows etc on that TV with VLC ...

BUT ... everything i watch with VLC stutters on the TV ... on my PC monitor the pictures come smoothly.
i have tried adjusting several VLC settings with no success and hope that anyone here can help me solve this problem.

Furthermore i know that the TV is capable of showing movies fluently since Windows Media Player works fine ... but well ...i hate the media player ^^

I hope you can help me!
thx

Output mode is on Default ... I'll try the other modes ...

or do you have any suggestions which mode might work?
