Hi PC gurus,
I'm having a few issues playing back 720p MKV files on my computer (might be other 720p files but I only have mkv). The sound plays fine but the video skips and jumps using VLC. My computer is:
CPU: Pentium 4 2.4Ghz
RAM: 2GB DDR2
Grapics Card: GeForce 4 Ti 4200 128MB (AGP)
OS: Win XP Pro
What can I do to improve the play back performance? Would upgrading the graphics card help? Or am I just asking too much from my computer?
I can play back 720p mkv container files just fine on my Atom 1.3 GHz CPU with i890 (?) gfx chipset. However, I need to disable post processing as it is really at its limit. I'm using the CoreAVC or DivX 7 codecs for H.264. MPlayer is far too slow for that to work at least on my machine.
