Getting a weird stutter when playing high bit rate files. Doesn't appear to be container specific .mkv .mp4 etc. Can't be sure but I get a brief pause every 10 mins or so. Lower bit rate files play fine and I've had system monitor running to see whats 'spiking' at the point of the stutter with nothing to suggest its a resource issue. Playing the same files on smplayer doesn't present an issue. Any ideas? Cheers.
