I am backing up all of my DVDs on my computer using FairUse Wizard 2.1a and converting the to Xvid format. I am using Koepi's latest stable binaries. They all convert fine without any problems but when I play them with windows media player they stutter alot. Not throughout the whole movie but every 5-10 minutes or so it will start doing it. The funny thing is that it does not do it in VLC player. I also have encoded a few into Divx format using Dr. Divx (6.0) and they also stutter some in WMP 10. If I was going to keep them on my computer I would be bothered with it because I would just use VLC player but I am planning on purchasing a Galaxy 3500 Tvisto with and putting a 500GB hard drive in it and loading all of my movies onto it and I do not want to buy all of that just to find out that they all stutter. Does anyone know why it could be doing this. I just freshly installed windows and installed the codecs one at a time. Has anyone else had these problems before?

VLC uses libavcodec and is just generally more efficient than dshow based players. What are your system specs and what is the CPU usage during playback?

I have a P4 3.5ghz HT with 2GB DDR2, BFG 7800GTX, Win XP PRO, CPU Usage is like 1-3% during playback.

Sorry I meant 3.4ghz. My only concern is if this will happen if I buy a external HD Media player?

Brentcato you can't play AVIs with that - you need something good (something powerful).
LMAO... Ahhh, funny :^)
But seriously, your AVIs might not playback smoothly if they are not interleaved properly, ie. audio interleaved every 1 video frame.
Interleaving every 10-12 or more frames will make the file a wee bit smaller but can cause problems, especially apparent in playback from optical drive.
Also, if you have both DivX and XviD (and maybe other) codecs installed, use GSpot to determine which one is doing the playback decoding.
Adjust those decoder settings - lower post-processing will playback smoother on your tired old rig... LoL.
I think that WMP10 sucks but celtic_d knows WHY :^) Now we know too - thanks.
But those files should play good on your rig, if playing from defragged harddisk. If they stutter it's a bad sign, for the files I mean.
You could try re-interleaving one using NanDub (5 minute job).
The more they grow in MB, the more it needed doing. If a 700MB AVI grows 2 or 3 MB, it needed doing (was not interleaved evey 1 video frame). If it grows 5MB, it was severely under-interleaved, creating all kinds of problems to save those lousy 5MB.
You could try other peoples AVIs on your rig and see how they play, and play yours on other peoples - where goeth the stuttering?
I hope you have a playback problem and your AVIs are all fine,
Regards
