            I got it... and it played fine on my computer?  It's just an<br>
            MPEG-TS container with H264 video codec and AC3 audio codec.<br>
              The video is full HD 1920x1080.  That's all really<br>
            standard stuff.<br>
<br>
            My guess to your problem is that your computer just doesn't<br>
            have enough horse power to play back a full HD video, and/or<br>
            your video drivers are slow enough they they can't keep up.<br>
<br>
            If you think your computer has enough power to play back the<br>
            video perhaps the video players are trying to use the video<br>
            card for hardware acceleration and the video card can't keep<br>
            up with a high definition video.  I have a couple of systems<br>
            that I use for mythtv that can't handle hardware<br>
            acceleration of HD video, so I have to turn it off to get it<br>
            to get it to play back right..<br>
<br>
            In VLC go into the preferences and select Video.  Then<br>
            UNCHECK the box next to "Accelerated video output<br>
            (overlay)". Also click on input and Codecs and uncheck the<br>
            box next to "Use GPU accelerated decoding"  That should make<br>
            VLC use your CPU to decompress the video and if you have<br>
            enough horsepower it should actually play correctly.  If<br>
            that's not checked already trying checking them and see if<br>
            that makes a difference.<br>
