    I use Xbox Media Center to watch my anime on my TV. I usually get it from Dattebayo (http://dattebayo.com/).

    DB has recently changed their video compression or codec (http://dattebayo.com/pr/74) and now Bleach and Naruto play very choppy and bad on XBMC.

    How do I fix this problem?

    I think I need to download a codec and put it into the XBMC folder, but I don't know where or what codec.

    Please help me!

    The newest version of xbmc is really choppy and sluggish for me. You might want to try to replace your version with a older version to see if that helps or not. I think the video codecs got messed up and released with bad ones.

    Im going to try to import the old codecs into the newest xbmc, i'll let you know how it goes.

    Its the fact DB had started using an HD codec and XBMC doesn't work well with it.

    There are torrents being released of SD versions that run 100% on XBMC.

    I'm just trying to decide if I should start converting them myself or keep downloading the torrent repacks.
