Subject: Re: vlc
vlc is playing audio just fine but the video plays a little, stops, jumps
ahead a few frames to catch up with the audio then plays a little more,
then repeats.

To get the errors I ran vlc from the terminal:

bmike1@c521 ~/Pictures/2013/Peru2013 $ vlc 00004.MTS

and I noticed the third line so I ran that as well.

and I see the eighth frame from the bottom. It seems my computer is too
slow?
