WMP Stuttering VLC Aint!

Guys,

This is so ridiculous.. i was watching transformers on my comp..

on VLC it was smooth playback although a lower quality as no DIVX .

On WMP quality was good but framerates were dropping & causing the video playback to lag...

Any advice?

 

btw it happens many times...when i use firefox while video is playing..

Its a dual-core processor @ 1.8 GHz ..+ 2 GB DDR2 RAM

the problem is caused only on WMP .. other players work fine

 

Dude, you don't need all that crap!

Use K-Lite Mega Codec Pack,

It plays:

- Any video file, divx, 3ivx, etc.
- Any Real Media file
- Any Quicktime file

basically it plays anything you throw at it, all in a small neat player that barely uses any resources!

i also have that wmp problem even if i am running just wmp to play music it will do it.on my vaio ,i get changing output lavels with speakers and vlc plays out smoothly.

 

How about letting us know what operating system you use?

 

It's in his signature.

 

Not for dr.pratik. Also, I rarely rely on the signature to determine what machine or OS has a problem, since people have a habit of changing configurations and not updating signatures.

 

I have the same problem.

WMP stutters and the audio goes out of sync. VLC plays the same video just fine.

I'm guessing it's because I have both DivX Pro and K-Lite Pack installed and the codecs are clashing to cause the stuttering. (Even though I disabled K-Lite version of DivX during installation)

 

K-lite Sux!!!.. i installed it & it prevents me from using DivX .. also the Encoding is sub-standard quality. & the interface feels so unprofessional.. i felt so cheap using K-lite that i uninstalled it immediately..

 

Then how about CCCP, or WEMCP?
