I found under 5384 that the multimedia experience to be choppy and not the best. Especially when it came to DVD playback and Live TV in the Media Center. I have a Gateway P-4 2.0 gigahertz computer with 1.5 gb of RAM and an Nvidia GeForce FX5200 video card with 128 mb of RAM. I was becoming frustrated with the situation and on a hunch, I downloaded and installed the latest release of Nvidia PureVideo. Now my DVD playback is much improved, except in Media Player 11 (I do have alternatives to MP11 for watching DVD movies) and the live TV in the Media Center is much better.
Has anyone also had this experience? Is the problem with the default decoder that Microsoft provides?
