Where are you watching the videos from, and, if from your CD drive, what read speed does your CD-ROM drive have (2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 24x, 48x, etc...)?
 
IM ON A REPLY ROLL!!!!

I come across many video, audio, formats in my fun time, thats my time, no welding bridges, no tellin the kids not to roll down the steps, yada yada...

ne ways, yes, have u recently downloaded codecs, maybe new media player, that supports other codecs that r new on ur sys. Ive gotten a few codec packages, plugins, and players that all have caused probs. make sure ur player that u like or prefer to use is set as default, and in ur pref(opt) menu look for plugins, annnnd check other players, disable, unclick tick wipe, nething (FILE FORMATS.EXT) yada yada, that may try to auto play other files that ur prefered player is attempting to play. ...im goin along with software conflict, but could b a hardware as well, check ur system by the touch and smell after a freeze, somethings hott>>?? vid crd, cpu heat sink? could b as well, all else fails...got a blockbuster near u:( kiddin bud n best luck to ya :)
 
hmm, chx ur hardware.. something new has happened otherwise. uninstall alll codecs, plugins, and players not used, reinstall what u want disable auto get codecs...hmmm, if not hardware not sure, but something new happened for it to come outta no where, virus?
 
np, and good luck to u, if ya want a decent proggy to play all types try this, takes a lil time to get the feel for but diff none the less, i hate havin rp qt wmp and my creative, as well as nvidias decoders and enoders to get, i imported all to this and adjusted the look and feel after some time, oh i left out winamp...
