ok i am havning problems with 1080p mkv playback. i have gotten it so it plays back smooth but there is just a little bit of broken image.
i am running coreavc with haali media spliter and ac3filter.
so my cpu is running at about 50-60% used
and my ram is about 700mb used

so how would i be able to get more smoother play back thanks for the help

here is my specs
tv sharp aquos lc42d4u hd 1080p tv
case: antec nsk2480 w/ 380watt psu
mobo: ga-ma78gm-s2h
proc: amd x2 4600+
graphics: onboard
hdd: wd caviar 7200rpm
patriot 2x1gb 6400 ram
wireless: belkin wireless g card
hdmi to hdmi
and optical audio
 
You seem to indicate its smooth already. If its not, then you can switch to a decoder that will use the GPU for accelerated playback. You can use wiretaps excellent guide here

If the video is playing back smoothly, i.e. at the specified frame rate with 0 dropped frames, then the culprit will be the display not being in sync with the video....i.e 60hz/23.98fps and you may be seeing the same kinda effects as tearing in games, for this you can either trying ffdshow or reclock to get rid of the judder.
 
ok i have tried both methods in the guide page. and im still getting juddered pics during faster motion. and my tv is 1080p @60hz.

this is getting kinda frustrating. thanks for the help though
 
You need to work out the problem first, in WMP/MPC/VLC you can view the stats whilst watching a movie to see if its dropped frames

WMP - View->Statistics->Advanced
VLC - View Menu->Stream & Media Info-> Statistics
MPC - View Menu->Statistics

If the clip plays back with 0 dropped frames, then the problem is the difference between the framerate and the refresh rate on your TV. If so you need to look at using a filter called reclock or using an avisynth script within ffdshow to help you out.
