Hey,
Got this one problem with my system that occurs every now and then: When I play video files, the video stutters on the displays after few seconds, jumping every five seconds to another frame (regardless if in main timeline or in a task, wheather free running or going along the timeline - chcecked all of the options in different configurations). In preview window of Production it plays without any problems.
I would think that it's a codec thing in the specific video, but the odd thing is that when I check the "looping" option in cue options the stutter is gone and the video plays smoothly. That's my way of going round the problem, but just makes me wonder what can be wrong with my system.
I think that it is a system or codec based thing peculiar to my system as when running on another one from a different company with exactly the same hardware configuration, a video would stutter at mine, and play very smoothly on the borrowed one. The only difference between the systems was software - my windows 7 is optimised as Dataton suggest, and the other one is installed as is, without any tweaking.
Got any ideas what can be wrong?
