[QUOTE="Fedorov, post: 188115"] Update1: Grimbo DOES also have this issue when we tested Xvid's of a similar size. Update2: I stumbled upon a thread over on the VLC media player forums where others were having Xvid freezing/choppiness... there is a setting in VLC to change the size of the buffer cache - it uses a very small one by default (300). Setting it to something above 2000 cured my problem. Some other Xvid's I tried I needed to increase it to 6000. Haven't seen any freezing in any of the clips I've tried since! :) Glad it turns out to be a VLC issue rather than a PC/router/Mac hardware issue :) Fedorov. [/QUOTE]
