[QUOTE="AxelSocial, post: 1005831, member: 142208"] Thank so much RoChess for taking the time to share your expertise and help me. I, indeed, did not have the DXVA2 enabled. I did enabled it after seeing your post. So far things seem to work when watching a TV series episode in .avi format. I played a movie for a few minutes and i did not notice any stuttering. I hope to be able to watch a full movie at the weekend and I will report back. The Dell laptop where MediaPortal is running on is a dedicated PC for it. I keep the laptop with minimal apps on it as to minimize the CPU load and have as much HDD space available for media files. So basically, I am running the OS (Windows7), a browser, an antivirus and a firewall and off course mediaportal + Plugins. Regarding the GPU and CPU widgets, are these the ones you are referring to? - [url]http://addgadgets.com/gpu_meter/[/url] - [url]http://addgadgets.com/all_cpu_meter/[/url] Regarding the [SIZE=3]MPC-HC standalone codecs, are [/SIZE]you[SIZE=3] suggesting to use MPC-HC as an external player instead of the MediaPortal own player?
