VLC Player (*.avi) Choppy and 100% CPU usage

Postby XMen67 » 26 Jul 2011 04:13

Hi,

I have this problem, after I reinstalled my WinXP SP3. My VLC player plays *.avi very jerkily and choppy. CPU shoots up to 100%. However when i use the WMP9 to play the same avi, WMP9 works fine

1. I reinstalled WinXP SP3. All drivers are in and working. I checked and installed the latest Radeon 9600 series driver too. Installed codec packs, DirectX 10.0 and etc.

2. I installed VLC 1.1.11(latest). Plays avi(s) but very very choppily and jerky. Tried DMA, buffer 5000msec. Did not work. CPU is 100% and system slows down.

3. WMP9 plays avi(s) fine.

4. This was working before the crash.

Not sure what is the problem. Anyone has the same experience? Anyone can help?

Hi the video size is SD 640X480 and Filesize is 750MB. Not the heavy type.
