I'm using windows XP professional 32bit with XBMC. The PC is an AMD x2 5200, 2 gigs of ram, and an 8800gt. The issue that I'm having is that when XBMC is running I get occasional tearing or frame drops (I'm not sure the term) in the video. What appears to happen is almost like the video gets stuck and then jumps ahead to catch up. Audio tends to stay in sync when this happens. It happens most often when the camera has a lot of motion, when there is a lot of action on the screen, or during long camera pans across non-moving objects. It may happen more often but these are the situations when I notice it. Does anyone know of any tweaks that I can do to get this running more efficiently? I have considered switching the box to a linux based XBMC Live boot but I would like to avoid that if at all possible. I read a couple places that this is a problem with the AMD chip but I'm not really sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated, let me know if you need any more information.
