Entree Rep: 0 Joined: 26 May 2006 Posts: 1 OFFLINE | I do a lot of video editing, and ever since about a year back, I have NOT been able to playback a DV quality, or even relatively high quality movie smoothly. I have analyzed my CPU usage, and as soon as I play a movie my CPU usage shoots up to 100% and the frame rate dies to about 3 FPS.
I have a DELL Dimension 8300 with 2 GB RAM and a 3.2GHz Pentium 4. I have a ATI RADEON 9800 Series. I’m running dual flat panel monitors. I have Windows XP Pro. I’ve thoroughly cleaned my startup programs, and get the same 100% usage when I run the video without ANY applications running. I also get the same result in all players, Windows Media, Winamp, etc. It seems to only be with high quality DV video, lower bitrate video plays fine.
To my knowledge, I have the most recent ATI drivers installed. My memory usage is virtually 0% when I run video, but the CPU goes crazy.
Some people have suggested that perhaps this is a codec conflict. Could that be possible? If so, how do I resolve it?
Can anyone offer some advice?
