[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1006202, member: 18896"] Sounds like you already fixed it, I myself use the LAV codec as well eventhough I know how to configure MPC-HC standalone filters which are technically better for me. The issue for me surfaces when I'm RDP-ed into the HTPC while MediaPortal is playing and I simultaniously mess with audio/video codecs. Then I hear the MediaPortal stutter in the livingroom as well. So instead of switching to MPC-HC standalone codecs/splitters, which does solve the issue, I just avoid doing the tasks that I know cause the issue. And yes, these are the codecs/splitters I meant, not the stand-alone app of MPC-HC. The latter serves a point when you wish to play with madVR and such, but the codecs work fine on the MediaPortal internal player and are just much better written to deal with concurrency/multi-thread. I'm hoping that eventually LAV will get the code changes to do the same, and the faster the system, the less of a noticable issue it is. When you have like an Atom CPU or Brazos CPU system that is too weak to deal with certain media, then MPC-HC might offer a solution, any modern system should work fine with LAV unless you have specific situations like the one I described for myself. Those are also indeed the gadgets I was referring to, though for the CPU part I tend to just use the Windows task manager set to the "Performance" tab, but whatever floats your boat. Keep in mind that a short flash to 100% can cause a stutter to be heared instantly, but its of such a small duration that it might not even register on those CPU charts. But a system that severly suffers from an issue usually clearly shows the issue. With Windows 8 it is real easy to detect the problem, because it uses colors to highlight the offenders inside task manager, so you just look for the dark orange colored tasks. The GPU gadget is just handy, because that will allow you to see if the videocard is actually being put to work properly. There are many other tools available to do the same, but that GPU gadget from addgadgets.com is the one I prefer due to simplicity. It does not work for every APU or GPU, but that is easy to test.
