TCPMP m4v file stutters

krisdb · 07-13-06, 12:23 AM

I installed the FFMPEG and AAC plugins for TCPMP, so I can play m4v files on my PPC, but alot of them (not all) will stutter and breaks up while playing, almost like I'm trying to stream them, even though I'm playing them off my SD card. The latest one to stutter is a 320x240 21MB m4v file playing at 30fps. I'm also on a X30 (624MHz/WM2003SE). I've increased the buffer in TCPMP, but that doesn't seem to help. Also, if I play the same file on my PC, it runs fine. Does anyone know how I can fix the stuttering? Thanks.

Try setting your CPU to max. I had this problem as well and changing processor speed helped with some of the files.

Thanks for the response. I tried setting the CPU to max, but its still stutters. I think TCPMP runs at max speed anyhow, when playing a video.

I think you need the avc plugin. :approve:

Have you tried running the ppc5invl? I had similiar problems and that worked for me.

What is ppc5invl? I tried googling it, but couldn't find anything.
