In first problem group are the people who only have minor issues with certain video and audio output modules, usually using OpenGL vout fixes these since for some reason it gives little more breathing room for aout. In second problem group we have people who use power saving options (hardware based ones like Cool&Quiet, and software based ones like Windows power management), and they usually complain about moderate or very nasty sync/playback issues (with some laptops removal of power cord can cause problems since it changes the power management settings). Third group are overclockers whom say that increase of CPU speed (e.g. with setFSB) causes issues. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Also I am quite sure that many small audio glitches are related to this (some people complain that playback speed or pitch of the audio isn't same with VLC and with other media players). </div><div>
<br></div><div>If someone wants to re-write better timing code, then make sure it works OK when CPU clock speed changes during playback. </div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
