Odd.... but it would explain some things. Some films run fine others just fail
or the sound stays behind. And some codecpacks make it worse.

But no problems yet with Xine or my Mplayer on my Knoppix 3.1 system.

You: "Hey, I see you are running old codecs, shall I upgrade them?"
Friend: "Okay, good idea"
You: "And have you ever tried Linux, I've got nice boot CD named Knoppix, wanna try?"

Days later:
Friend: "Cool, videos seem to playback much smoother under this "knoppux" or whatever you call it. Odd that I didn't see this stuttering under Windows before."
You: "That's the power of Linux. Do you want me to install it on your harddisk so you won't need the CD anymore?"
