[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 1164329, member: 56231"] One thing that hasn't been mentioned, or I can't see it, is what sort of optical drive is in use. What does System Profiler tell you? Laggy movies can be due to a dirty laser lens, a poor internal connection, or a faulty drive mechanism. Do you have an external firewire optical drive you can use for testing? Do give VLC another try, time and time again it seems to handle video better than Apple's proprietary applications. Have you in fact tried watching movies with Quicktime, the app you prefer? [/QUOTE]
