Having a little trouble with one of the files I have just tried to play. The file is a mkv file and when I try to view it in Media Centre the file began stuttering every 5 seconds. This was frustrating the life out of me so started restarting, pulling out usb's etc and changing things to no avail.
Opened the file in VLC and the stuttering began to stop however, juddering *i think is what its called) began to happen and the video would stop and then go really fast to catch up with the audio.
I then opened the file in Media Player and the same thing happened that occurred with Media Centre. However; when trying this I noticed that no stuttering occurred when the file was opened in a window and only started doing this when it was full screen.
The file is a 23.976 fps and when I changed my resolution down to 25fps it made no difference however; I wasn't 100% sure what I was doing messing with the resolution to be compatible with fps.
I've tried playing HD .avi files and they were fine and no issues with stuttering etc and another mkv movie I had which was also 23.975 fps was fine. Does this lean towards a bad file or a bad sector in the HD?
Does anyone have any ideas?
