(jitter stutter whatever is the appropriate term ) The file I am looking at is not using packed bitstream and does not matter whether it is in avi or mkv container. A good measure of this symptom is the opening studio logos or scenes which have panning or gliding objects. Divx encoded files do not seem to have this problem.

If you have hardware acceleration applied, go into settings, video settings, acceleration, disable libstagefright, disable mediacodec, and try and see if that works, otherwise choose software acceleration without choosing multi-threaded decoding.

the key to get this to work is to not have libstagefright or medicodec applied in hardware decoding. If you have to, then apply software decoding without multi-threaded decoding. It might take a reboot for this to work, or simply play a file with hardware decoding and then choose the above settings.

Let me know if that works for you. This also works on the xbmc for ouya application.

I am also noticing lagging or choppy playback on xvid encoded files. I will try this when I get home.

My library is a mix of xvid / mpeg2 DVD rips / h264 rips. Will turning off hardware acceleration affect playback, specifically for 1080p h264 content?

I tested this d/l on a non-dev win7 machine, it installed and ran fine. Thanks for helping me test this.

Link is nothing but a virus site. Don't go there.

You're probably using the Chrome web browser which is reporting false positives for devhost. It's not a virus site, I've used it for years. That said, I'm looking at a different host.

I downloaded using firefox and got quite a few warnings from my antivirus app, NOD32. It was complaining about files other than your app so I assumed the malware was in ads. As another member suggested, I seemed to be getting warnings every time I moved the mouse but it was probably just every time I rolled over a link or image.

Regardless the app downloaded and installed just fine. It was a breeze to load XBMC on my FireTV with it. Thanks for your hard work.
