I'll look into that next week.
It does? any links? What are they using, mplayer? VLC?

I was under the impression they were on the same level as we are.

That said, I've never had any problems with watching movies, I've got mostly high compressed h264 or 640x480 avi's. For my more difficult codecs (some anime and odd re-encodes) I can overclock to 950MHz and never see studder.

I can appreciate the convenience of not having to re-encode from HD formats, but its worth it to avoid even the occassional studder and battery issues of more demanding videos.

Has everyone here tried kmplayer or SiB for their videos? Fantastic GUI frontends for mplayer.
