Having a little stutter problem.
I moved my movies from the HTPC in my sig to my new server, also in sig, and now when watching HD movies, either rips or iso's, it plays fine at the begginning but starts to stutter about half an hour into the movie. I didn't have this problem before while they were saved on the HTPC and when I copy a movie back over to the HTPC, it plays stutter free. I remember seeing someone else with this problem but can't seem to find the thread, so was hoping someone else remembers what the problem turned out to be or maybe where I should start looking.
My networks is setup as follows, Cable modem -> Linksys WRT54g running DD-WRT -> Trendnet TEG-S80g(gigswitch) -> Server/HTPC/Other Comps(all gigs)
HTPC is Vista Ulti 32bit running MyMovies in Media Center with ISO's being played on PwrDVD 7.3.
I've monitored my HPTC's system and the only changes that occur with the stuttering is the network bandwidth. It stays nice and steady ~8mbs and then spikes, dropping out to ~2mbs when the stuttering begins. I'm pretty sure this is a network setting somewhere and an easy fix but just can't remember what/where. Any help would be much appreciated.
Oh, BTW, any SD movies play just fine.
