[vlc] Re: Stuttering on Network files

[Brian Carlson]

Server is MS Windows 2003 (PIII 800, 768MB RAM, Hard drives in RAID 0 array)
Client is Apple OS X 10.2.6 (G3 700, 640MB RAM)
VLC version is 0.61
Network connection speed is 100Mbps
Media type is any one of the following; DVD/DVCD/AVI(mpeg4)
Approximate bitrate is anywhere from 700-1500Kbps
Does it play when viewed locally? Not sure, I will try this when I get home.

By stuttering I mean the file will play perfectly for a period of 10 seconds or so, then the video and audio will stop for about a second, and then vlc jumps forward about a second in the file and resumes playing.  When playing this same file in quicktime the "stuttering" issues do not occur.
