Problem with 1080p .mkv files (1 Viewer)

[jukster]

Hi there, I am having a problem playing 1080p .mkv files. It seems like it is a bit laggy and the video and audio are out of sync. I have coreAVC installed but still seems sluggish. I assume I am doing something wrong as my computer should be more than good enough to play 1080p. Could it be Windows 7? Any ideas would be appreciated.

Cool, I'll try it when I get home. Does it matter which mode I use EVR vs VMR9?

I would think you should be using EVR on Win 7 (like Vista).

I'd also check with Graphstudio afterwards that it really is using the codecs you think it is when playing....
