I had a nice long post ready, but it all comes down to this unruley codec causing some stuttering problems when playing back, CinemaCraft crashing when encoding, and Vegas DVD Architect creating DVD's that stutter. I'd like to use Vegas DVD Arch, but it's where the MainConcept MPEG codecs come from. My notebook doesn't have any of these MPEG problems, and doesn't have Vegas installed. I've checked with GSpot to determine it was the Main Concept MPEG codecs being used for all MPEG's. It's possible I'm not encoding the MPEG's properly, but what tells me I'm doing it right is they play perfectly on my notebook, and actually they used to play perfectly on my desktop until I uninstalled and reinstalled some things that changed the MPEG codec registry. Any ideas? Stuttering = every few frames pausing for a split second Both machines are P4 2.6Mhz, 533Mhz FSB, 512MB RAM and 1GB RAM
Found out it was indeed the "Main Concept MPEG Splitter." But I'm still asking what's all going on here... Just finding a fix without knowing the answer is not my style. Here's a very good app here for viewing ALL codecs on your system (unlike Device Manager) and removing just the part (or reg key) of the codec you don't want -- without removing the whole library (unlike regsrv32 /u) DXMAN http://www.analogx.com/contents/download/audio/dxman.htm
